  • Patent number: 7505418
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing network loopback using a virtual address includes detecting, in a system, data having a destination address matching an address resident in the system. A virtual destination address, which does not match an address of a device resident within the system and does not match an address of another system connected thereto, is generated. The destination address in the data is replaced with the virtual destination address. A routing table lookup is performed for the data. The virtual destination address is then replaced with the destination address and the data is forwarded to a network interface of the system.
