摘要： A system including an ordered data table containing linked lists of MAC addresses has a multiplicity of search engines which have their access to an LRU engine under the control of a token which is passed from one search engine to the next when the LRU engine has completed reordering the table after an address look-up. The system avoids conflicts between searching and reordering and allows reordering to be performed at a controlled rate.

摘要： Trunking or other relationship is defined between ports on different devices in a cascade-connected stack of network devices. When network communications are passed via the cascade connection an indication is included of whether it originated from a port that is part of a trunk and thereby port-mismatch errors can be avoided.

摘要： The present invention is based on a ring architecture wherein each chip in the multiplicity of chips is connected in a chain so that it can receive packets from the next previous chip in the chain and forward packets to the next following chip in the chain, whereby to form a ring. Before a packet is placed on the ring by a device it is provided with a ‘masking’ field which identifies each of the other devices and the ports within any such device to which the packet must be sent in order to achieve a multicast. When a device in its turn receives such a packet it will examine the masking field to determine whether the field identifies that device. If so, the packet, which may be held in temporary storage, may be processed for forwarding from a port of that device. The device will strip from the masking field the identification of the respective device and transmit the packet with a thus modified masking field to the next device in turn. If a packet does not contain any indication of another device in the ring, the packet will not be transmitted and therefore will naturally terminate.
摘要翻译：本发明基于环形结构，其中多个芯片中的每个芯片以链路连接，使得其可以从链中的下一个先前芯片接收分组，并将分组转发到链中的下一个后续芯片，由此到形成戒指在通过设备将数据包放置在环上之前，它被提供有“掩蔽”字段，其标识每个其他设备以及要向其发送分组的任何这样的设备中的端口以实现多播。当设备反过来接收到这样的分组时，它将检查掩蔽字段以确定该字段是否标识该设备。如果是这样，则可以处理可以保存在临时存储器中的分组，以从该设备的端口转发。设备将从掩蔽字段剥离相应设备的标识，并将具有如此修改的掩蔽字段的分组依次传送到下一个设备。如果一个分组不包含环中另一个设备的任何指示，则该分组将不被传输，因此将自然地终止。

摘要： A forwarding database in a network switch is established and maintained by performing a look-up for a source address read from an incoming frame to find a match between the source address in the frame and the source address in an entry which includes that source address, a port number and an age field. New entries are made if matches are not found, so that the forwarding database facilitates the dispatch of frames to destination addresses corresponding to source addresses in the table. The performance of a source address look-up is inhibited in the absence of a token, a reservoir of tokens being decremented each time a source address look-up is performed and incremented from time to time, at a selectable rate. The process facilitates the performance of a destination address look-up for every received frame by restricting the bandwidth made available for source address look-ups.

摘要： A communication device which includes a hardware trie search facility. At least part of a memory is divided into memory blocks, each of said blocks consisting of a multiplicity of locations, at least some of said locations each providing when accessed a pointer to another block and an indication of the size of the block. A shift register holds an address key, and a trie block is accessed using an address composed of a number of bits related to said indication of the size of the block. The key is shifted by said number of bits prior to a subsequent stage of the search. Part of the memory comprises an associated data table which includes entries of data enabling a packet to be forwarded and at least some locations in said blocks provide when accessed a pointer to an entry in the associated data table.

摘要： A forwarding database in a network switch is established and maintained by performing a look-up for a source address read from an incoming frame to find a match between the source address in the frame and the source address in an entry which includes that source address, a port number and an age field. New entries are made if matches are not found, so that the forwarding database facilitates the dispatch of frames to destination addresses corresponding to source addresses in the table. The switch maintains a system age, such as a two-bit field, which is changed from time to time and the current system age is entered in the table as the age field when a source address entry is made. When said source address is found by a look-up process, it is updated with the current system age only if the age field of the entry and the current system age do not correspond. There is a saving of bandwidth arising from the avoidance of write cycles when an age field of an entry corresponds to the current system age.

摘要： Port mirroring is achieved between ports on separate devices in a stack of communication devices by establishing a protocol for communications within a cascade connection forming the stack in which an indication is given of whether the communication is being sent to the mirror port in addition to its intended destination. This avoids increasing the volume of traffic in the cascade connection as would be the case if the original and mirror copy were sent separately.
