Abstract
A method and computer program product for defining a first subnet for a first end portion of a physical network. The first subnet includes: a first NIC IP address, a first gateway IP address, and a first logical path connecting the first NIC IP address and the first gateway IP address. A second subnet is defined for a second end portion of the physical network. The second subnet includes: a second NIC IP address, a second gateway IP address, and a second logical path connecting the second NIC IP address and the second gateway IP address. A supernet is defined for a central portion of the physical network. The first subnet is coupled to the second subnet via the supernet to enable point-to-point routing of data through the physical network.
