Abstract

A remote proxy in a virtualization layer domain establishes a plurality of logical channels via a network connection. The virtualization layer domain is part of a host system in which a set of virtual machines of a virtual machine domain run on a virtualization layer of the virtualization layer domain. The remote proxy receives first information from a first logical channel in plurality of logical channels and second information from a second logical channel in plurality of logical channels through the network connection. Then, the remote proxy determines that the virtual machine domain should process the first information and forwards the first information from the virtualization layer domain to a virtual machine in the set of virtual machines in the virtual machine domain. Also, the remote proxy determines that the virtualization layer domain should process the second information and forwards the second information to the virtualization layer for processing.
