Virtual packet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer networking, virtual packet may refer to:
- Packets created by a packet generator, to simulate real-world network conditions such as packet storms
- Packets at any layer or sublayer (as those terms are used in, for example, the OSI model) above the most basic packets or frames used in a network. These "virtual packets" allow heterogeneous networks to talk to each other using a common protocol.[1]
