Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system and method are provided for updating network protocols. A new ASIC is designed to adapt to future network protocols, the ASIC including at least one packet editing program. The ASIC is configured to classify a received packet to determine new protocols to which the packet is to be updated, delete selected existing headers of the packet, insert new headers in the packet based on the classification, and modify selected headers based on the classification.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: receiving, with one or more processors, a packet; classifying the packet, the classification comprising: determining, with a user logic unit, a newly developed protocol to which the packet is to be updated, wherein the newly developed protocol is a protocol which was not yet defined at the time the one or more processors were developed; and determining, with the user logic unit, which of a number of packet editing programs to opera…
