Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for performing a pattern match search for a data string having a plurality of characters separated by delimiters. A search key is constructed by generating a full match search increment comprising the binary representation of a data string element, wherein the data string element comprises all characters between a pair of delimiters. The search key is completed by concatenating a pattern search prefix to the full match search increment, wherein the pattern search prefix is a cumulative pattern search result of each previous full match search increment. A full match search is then performed within a lookup table utilizing the search key. In response to finding a matching pattern within the lookup table, the process returns to constructing a next search key. In response to not finding a matching pattern, the previous full match search result is utilized to process the data string.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and its method by which a bandwidth of a consecutive bit rate virtual path connection set up between a source node and a destination node is dynamically adjusted in a packet or cell exchange network comprising a transmission link and a plurality of interconnected nodes. SOLUTION: The network defines a bandwidth management server that accesses information relating to a network node and a transmission link. This server receives indication relating to an initial bandwidth reserved for connection every time virtual path connection or virtual channel connection is set up on the network. The server detects and uses in common the bandwidth available on the transmission link between consecutive bit rate virtual path connections whose bandwidth is adjustable in the consecutive or periodic mode and decides new bandwidth to each connection. A source node is informed of it every time new bandwidth is calculated and adjusts the bandwidth of the consecutive bit rate virtual path connection whose bandwidth is adjustable accordingly.

Abstract: Multicast transmission on network processors is disclosed in order both to minimize multicast transmission memory requirements and to account for port performance discrepancies. Frame data for multicast transmission on a network processor is read into buffers to which are associated various control structures and a reference frame. The reference frame and the associated control structures permit multicast targets to be serviced without creating multiple copies of the frame. Furthermore this same reference frame and control structures allow buffers allocated for each multicast target to be returned to the free buffer queue without waiting until all multicast transmissions are complete.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method, an apparatus, and a computer program for adding a QOS level to a packet.SOLUTION: Syntax analysis of a multi layer network communication including a nest header by a continuous network layer is performed, and a value related to a priority or a quality of service requirement (a priority indicator value) for data of each individual layer distributed over a header group is extracted. Aggregated data (a composition aggregation priority value) is applied to a table where different possible composition aggregation priority values corresponding to a lower resolution quality level value are mapped. The priority indicator value or the composition aggregation priority value can be filtered, or masked, or compressed. In one embodiment, bit subsets different from each other for storing the priority indicator values are selected based on a logical port associated with a packet and the final priority indicator value applied to a discriminated sub-table having a mapping of quality level values suitable for the logical port.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for implementing use of a network connection table which more shortens a required processing time and an access time, and is more easily achieved, more efficient and more inexpensive. SOLUTION: Searching for network connections includes receiving a packet, and zeroing particular fields of connection information from the packet if a new connection is to be established. The connection information is converted to an address for a location in a direct table using a table access process. The direct table stores patterns and reference information for new and existing connections. The connection information is compared with at least one pattern stored in the direct table at the address to find reference information for the received packet. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
