The embodiments described herein provide mechanism that allows an embedded router software image to run in the user application memory space of a general purpose computer. An interface process is provided to receive and transmit packets between the user application memory space and the operating system's protected or kernel memory space of the general purpose computer. The interface process mimics or emulates any hardware interfaces that would be available to the router software when running on a dedicated embedded router device.
