Abstract
A system and method can provide a data service in a network environment. The network environment can include a node, which supports a data service component that can provide a data service. Additionally, a filter can be provided on a networking device, such as a host channel adaptor (HCA) that is associated with the node. The networking device operates to use the filter to identify one or more packets targeting the data service component without protocol termination. Furthermore, the filter can forward said one or more packets to the data service component.
