Abstract
An improved method of accelerating packet transmission through a network is disclosed. More specifically, methods and systems are described for the offloading of packets transmitted in a UDP format with a ULP that allows the packets to retain characteristics of packets transmitted under the TCP format. This is useful in accelerating data transmitted in any ULP format and therefore provides a degree of flexibility previously unknown in the art. In addition, methods and systems are provided for a virtualized API which allows data to be transferred through the traditional network device if the new device is not present but directs the traffic through the new device when it is present. Also, a packet abstraction layer is disclosed which uses information from the state field to run the overlay function to map the formats of the incoming and outgoing packets into the format native to the new device.
