Methods and systems are provided for enabling a network between a first and a second processor using at least one additional processor separate from the first and second processors. In one embodiment, the at least one additional processor receives information indicating a consent on behalf of the first processor to enabling a tunnel between the first processor and the second processor and receives information indicating a consent on behalf of the second processor to enabling a tunnel between the second processor and the first processor. The at least one additional processor determines a first virtual address for the first processor and a second virtual address for the second processor such that the first and second virtual addresses uniquely identify the first and second processors, respectively, and are routable through the network. The at least one additional processor provides to each of the first and second processors the first and second virtual addresses to enable one or more tunnels between the first and the second processors.

Methods and systems are provided for providing network services using at least one processor, such as a network operations center that interfaces a base network. The network operations center may receive information identifying a user authorized to administer a first processor, which may be separate from the network operations center, and a base address that is routable in the base network. The network operations center may provide through the base network code and information for self-configuring the first processor as a gateway that interfaces the base network at the base address. The first processor may execute the provided code to self-configure itself as the gateway based on the provided information. The network operations center may then provide through the base network to the first processor additional information enabling at least one tunnel through the base network to a second processor, which may also be separate from the network operations center, when the first and second processors each provide to the network operations center a consent for enabling the tunnel.

A microprocessor chip which is capable of executing a specific subset of instructions on behalf of the main storage portion of a computer memory can be made to emulate direct execution instructions not in that specific subset while working on behalf a control storage portion of the computer memory in a manner which is transparent to the main storage portion by means of a novel set of operand space selection instructions in the control storage portion and a novel switching circuit on the microprocessor chip which controls the access of the chip to the control store portion and the main store portion.
