AI Technical Summary
In a Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) architecture, packet forwarding between virtual machines across different NUMA nodes leads to increased packet transmission delays due to remote memory access, which is not efficiently addressed by existing methods.
A packet forwarding method that involves the virtual routing device sending routing information to the network device to direct packets to the local NUMA node, avoiding the need for remote memory access by using multiple IPUs located on different NUMA nodes, ensuring packets are forwarded within the local node, thereby reducing delays.
This approach effectively reduces packet forwarding delays by eliminating the need for remote memory access, improving communication reliability and efficiency within the data center by ensuring packets are sent within the local NUMA node, enhancing the overall performance of the data center.
