Abstract
Systems and methods are described herein for configuring network layer connectivity between a network layer device and a host. A network controller receives, from the host, data link layer information about a network layer device and accordingly determines network layer information about the network layer device. The network controller configures the host and the network layer device to route traffic to each other over the network layer, by transmitting, to the host, the network layer information of the network layer device and by transmitting, to the network layer device, the network layer information of the host.
