Management and Implementation of Enclosed Local Networks in a Virtual Lab

Methods, systems, and computer programs for creating isolated environments that include virtual machines (VM) and networks in a virtual infrastructure are presented. The method includes an operation to define a configuration of a virtual system which includes VMs, virtual network interface cards (VNIC) in the VMs, and configuration local networks (CLN). Further, the method associates each VNIC with one of the CLNs and transmits instructions to the virtual infrastructure for deploying the configuration. Deploying the configuration includes instantiating VMs and CLNs in the virtual infrastructure. Each VM is instantiated in a host monitored by a virtual lab server, and the CLNs are instantiated in the same hosts where the VMs have been instantiated. Only VMs from the configuration can connect to the instantiated CLNs. The method further transmits instructions to the virtual infrastructure to customize the VMs by executing the customization instructions in the guest operating systems of the VMs to configure the VMs' VNICs.

VM network traffic monitoring and filtering on the host

A system and method is provided that enables older legacy guest operating systems like Windows NT 4.0 and Windows95® to take advantage of newly developed NDIS Intermediate (IM) drivers that support firewalls, quality of service, IP security, intrusion detection, and other functionality for monitoring / filtering incoming and outgoing network traffic in contemporary host operating systems such as Windows XP operating in a virtual machine (VM) environment. The invention thus makes such older legacy operating systems less susceptible to Internet viruses, and worms, network denial of service (DOS) attacks, and the like. For each Virtual Network Interface Card (VNIC) in a guest VM, a corresponding VNIC is created on the host OS, and a point to point connection is established between the guest and host VNICs. The NDIS IM drivers bind themselves on top of the host VNIC and effectively place themselves as a filter on the point to point connection.

Offloading packet processing for networking device virtualization

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for offloading packet processing for networking device virtualization. A host maintains rule set(s) for a virtual machine, and a physical network interface card (NIC) maintains flow table(s) for the virtual machine. The physical NIC receives and processes a network packet associated with the virtual machine. Processing the network packet includes the physical NIC comparing the network packet with the flow table(s) at the physical NIC. When the network packet matches with a flow in the flow table(s) at the physical NIC, the physical NIC performs an action on the network packet based on the matching flow. Alternatively, when the network packet does not match with a flow in the flow table(s) at the physical NIC, the physical NIC passes the network packet to the host partition for processing against the rule set(s).
