A computer system authenticates a logical port for a virtual machine. A logical network maintains logical network data for a logical switch having the logical port. A virtual switch identifies a logical port authentication request for the virtual machine and transfers the logical port authentication request. A logical port authenticator receives the logical port authentication request and transfers the logical port authentication request for delivery to an authentication database. The logical port authenticator receives a logical port authentication response transferred by the authentication database that grants the logical port authentication request for the virtual machine and transfers authorization data for the logical port. The virtual switch transfers user data for the virtual machine when the virtual machine uses the logical port responsive to the authorization data. 计算机系统认证虚拟机的逻辑端口。逻辑网络维护具有该逻辑端口的逻辑交换机的逻辑网络数据。虚拟交换机标识虚拟机的逻辑端口认证请求，并传输逻辑端口认证请求。逻辑端口认证器接收逻辑端口认证请求，并传输逻辑端口认证请求以递送到认证数据库。逻辑端口认证器接收由认证数据库传输的逻辑端口认
