Abstract
In one aspect, the invention provides a method of reconfiguring a network interface. In some embodiments, this method includes the following steps: receiving information indicating that an operator desires to remove a first network address from the network interface and assign a second network address to the network interface; and in response to receiving the information, providing a notification to at least one computer program executing in the node such that the computer programs can take a necessary measure (e.g., close a connection that uses the first network address).
