Abrégé

A processor-to-processor agent to provide connectivity over a processor-to-processor interconnect between services/network functions on different processors on a same compute node in a server is provided. The processor-to-processor agent can intercept socket interface calls using a network traffic filter in the network stack and redirect the packets based on traffic matching rules.
