Abstract
Techniques to facilitate enhanced addressing of local and network resources from a computing system are provided herein. In one implementation, a method of configuring an object memory management unit (OMMU) for a computing system includes transferring a request to at least one network configuration resource for OMMU configuration information, and receiving the OMMU configuration information from the at least one network resource. The method further comprises, based on the OMMU configuration information, generating a mapping of virtual addresses in the computing system to local addresses that address local resource of the computing system and network addresses that address network resources external to the computing system over at least a network.
