Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for establishing a connection between a virtualization device and a virtual machine infrastructure. The virtualization device may be configured to be communicatively coupled to one or more PCIe devices. A virtual machine may be executed on the virtual machine infrastructure. Control of the virtualization device may be passed through the virtual machine infrastructure to the virtual machine.
