As the demand for high bandwidth on the Internet increases, it is required to build next generation routers with the capability of forwarding multiple millions of packets per secon...
Most high-speed Internet Protocol (IP) lookup implementations use tree traversal and pipelining. Due to the available on-chip memory and the number of I/O pins of Field Programmab...
IP address lookup is challenging for high performance routers because it requires a longest matching prefix at speeds of up to 10 Gbps (OC-192). Existing solutions have poor updat...
— The scalability of Internet addressing and routing has been a serious issue and becomes a more urgent problem today because of driving factors like IPv6. A radical impacting el...
Abstract—High-speed routers often use commodity, fully-associative, TCAMs (Ternary Content Addressable Memories) to perform packet classification and routing (IP lookup). We prop...
