3-Tier vSTP setup installed on the virtualization environment running on underlying Host Servers.

PCIe Card installed on Host Sever(s).

VSTP MP(s) supporting TDM are co-located with TDM card(s) on same host.

MTP2 Adapter layer on VSTP MP communicates with MTP2 Layer running on the PCIe Card.

M3RL Layer and MTP2 Adapter layer exchange data and link primitives.

The following figure describes the component level diagram for the vSTP TDM setup:
