Abstract
A data storage device includes egress ports, a logical data storage, and a packet processor. The local data storage includes resources allocated to multiple tenants. The packet processor obtains packets that include data stored in the resources of the logical data storage. The obtained packets are addressed to a packet destination. The packet processor selects an egress port of the egress ports based on mappings between the data and the multiple tenants. The packet processor sends the packets via the selected egress port.
