Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A processing core includes a packet classifier, implemented in a single processing core, configured to classify incoming data packets into first data packets of a known data packet flow and into second data packets of an unknown data packet flow, a first path thread, implemented in the single processing core, configured to process ones of the first data packets at least by forwarding the first data packets to a destination that corresponds to a previously determined destination associated with the known data packet flow, and a second path thread, implemented in the single processing core, configured to process a received second data packet at least to determine a new data packet flow for the second data packet.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A processing core, comprising: a packet classifier, implemented in a single processing core, configured to classify incoming data packets (i) into first data packet flow comprising a flow of packets which originates from a same source, are directed to a same destination, and are of a same type, and (ii) into second data packets of an unknown data packet flow comprising a flow of packets that originate from an unknown source, are directed to an unknown destina…
