Abstract:

Remote direct memory access over a network uses a constrained usage model. In one embodiment, a method of accessing memory on a network comprises a first node of the network generating a remote direct memory access request to remotely access application-level memory on a second node of the network. The first node sends the request in a packet over the network to the second node, the sending being performed in accordance with a constrained usage model. In a further embodiment, constrained usage model comprises sending the packet in an Ethernet protocol packet over an Ethernet network, the Ethernet protocol packet having a OSI layer two header, but not a layer three header.
