摘要： Network units such as switches for use in a cascaded stack are organised to provide a cascade connection in the form of a dual unidirectional connection so that, in its ordinary configuration, there is at least one and preferably more than one unidirectional ring for each direction around the cascade, each ring including a respective port on each unit. For each ring, each port on a unit is connected by a respective link to a corresponding port on the preceding unit and the following unit. The units provide a self-healing operation in the event of various kinds of operational failure. The self-healing operation includes loop-back of packets in units adjacent the failure and bypass of a packet switching process for other units. The units include control logic for passing control frames containing status information relating to the units and links between them and for co-operation with a CPU to control a switching engine to perform the self-healing operation in accordance with that status information. The units forward on the cascade packets with headers that identify a destination port and the unit on which that port is located and also indicate which units have and have not been traversed by a packet.

摘要： Cascade control logic for use in a switch or other network unit that can be used in a cascaded stack can maintain normally a point-to-point half-duplex connection for control data with each of the next preceding and next succeeding units in the cascade. Each cascade logic device is organised so that for one direction, conveniently called the up direction, a device is a master and in the other direction the device is a slave in respect of the control path. A control device will generate master control frames in the up direction and deliver slave control frames in the down direction. The control device is organised so that in the absence of reception of valid control frames on a control link control data which would otherwise be sent out on that link is looped back within the control device. In this manner the control device can maintain under normal circumstances two virtual control channels which can ‘self-heal’ notwithstanding the failure or powering-down of a unit in the cascade.Status information represented by the control frames can be used to control a switching engine to provide self healing of the data path in the cascade.
摘要翻译：用于在级联堆叠中使用的交换机或其他网络单元中的级联控制逻辑可以正常地维护级联中的下一个前一个和后续单元中的每一个的控制数据的点对点半双工连接。每个级联逻辑器件被组织成使得对于一个方向，方便地称为向上方向，器件是主器件，并且在另一方向上，器件是关于控制路径的从器件。控制装置将沿向上方向产生主控制帧，并向下传送从控制帧。控制装置被组织成使得在没有接收到控制链路上的有效控制帧的情况下，否则将在该链路上发送的控制数据环回到控制装置内。以这种方式，控制装置可以在正常情况下维持两个虚拟控制通道，即使在级联中的单元发生故障或断电，它们也可“自愈”。由控制帧表示的状态信息可用于控制切换引擎以提供级联中的数据路径的自愈。

摘要： A system of switch modules contains input demultiplexers connected to ports on each of the modules and output multiplexers connected to each of the modules. Each module has output and input interfaces for mesh links and at least one output interface is looped back to an input interface on the same module. The arrangement reduces module-to-module traffic and corresponding increases the transmit bandwidth of a module.

摘要： A multi-port network unit for use in a cascade system of network units sends from a cascade port a packet including a special header having a source port ID, a destination port ID and a ‘destination port known’ field. The port IDs identify both a unit and a port within a unit. A routing database is set up, optionally by a discovery protocol, in terms of ports and either destination units (within the cascade) or source units (within the cascade). The database includes a mesh table, indicating from which cascade port a packet with a known destination port ID should be forwarded, without needing a fresh look-up. The database also includes a multicast exclusion table which allows ingress of packets with source unit IDs matched to an ingress port. The scheme allows a general mesh type of cascade while dynamically preventing closed loops.

摘要： A cascade system of network units includes forwarding units which have external ports, a communication fabric connecting the units and at least one processing unit which needs no forwarding database. The processing unit may perform a security operation such as intrusion prevention or encryption. Each forwarding unit on receipt of a packet performs a look-up to determine an egress port, to determine whether the packet must be diverted to a processing unit, to provide the packet with a first forwarding instruction identifying the egress port uniquely within the system and a second forwarding instruction identifying a diversion port by which the packet can reach the processing unit and to set an order field which determines which of the forwarding instructions shall be performed first. The processing unit is operative on receipt of the packet by way of the diversion port to change the order field to specify that the packet should now be sent to the egress port.

摘要： A switching module has external ports for sending and receiving data packets and mesh interfaces for internal mesh connections with other modules. A switching engine directs packets to one or other of the mesh interfaces according to the port number of a ‘destination’ or egress port on another module, as determined by a lookup. The port numbers are programmable so that the distribution of traffic through the mesh connections can be modified.
