Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media are disclosed for binding a process to a wildcard address and a port on a plurality of nodes of a cluster. A process receives a first request for a first address of a first volume that is sent to the port and a first address associated with a first virtual local area network that is not the wildcard address. The process determines the first address, a name of the first VLAN, and a first node that contains information regarding the first volume. The process determines an address of the first node that is part of the first VLAN. The address of the first node is returned. The process receives another request for a second address of a second volume that is sent to the port and a second address associated with another VLAN that is not the wildcard address.
