Abstract:
An information handling system receives a media access control address associated with a device installed in a burn slot, and determines a virtual private network that is associated with the media access control address. The system also determines a switch port in a network switch that corresponds to the virtual private network, and dynamically assigns the switch port that corresponds to the virtual private network to the device installed in the burn slot. The system instructs the network switch to route packets of data associated with the virtual private network via the switch port to the device installed in the burn slot.
