Abstract
Stateful network connections between a first virtual machine and at least a second virtual machine are preserved during a suspend and resume cycle. The virtual machines are interconnected by a network. A control instance is provided to manage a routing of network traffic of the virtual machines to the network. In case of a suspend operation, the control instance tracks network addresses of each virtual machine, whereas in case of a resume operation, the control instance sets up a router for each virtual machine and requests new network addresses for each router. The control instance configures a network address translation on the router assigned to each virtual machine to map the new network addresses to the network addresses used before suspending the virtual machines.
