of packet processing is the history of the Internet and packet switching. Packet processing milestones include: 1962–1968: Early research into packet switching...

or routers. Vector processing is the process of processing multiple packets at a time, with low latency. Single packet processing and high latency are...

controller polling-mode drivers for offloading TCP packet processing from the operating system kernel to processes running in user space. This offloading achieves...

in 2006. The processing of any packet sent to a loopback address, is implemented in the link layer of the TCP/IP stack. Such packets are never passed...

packet data. Network processors have specific features or architectures that are provided to enhance and optimise packet processing within these networks...

network packets. IPv6 specifies a new packet format, designed to minimize packet header processing by routers. Because the headers of IPv4 packets and IPv6...

In a network based on packet switching, processing delay is the time it takes routers to process the packet header. Processing delay is a key component...

the Control-Plane to manage packet processing and forwarding performed by a User-Plane component. Typical EPC or 5G Packet Gateways are split by the protocol...

decide the fate of the packet. The hook is placed in the network interface controller (NIC) driver just after the interrupt processing, and before any memory...

A packet analyzer (also packet sniffer or network analyzer) is a computer program or computer hardware such as a packet capture appliance that can analyze...

rules for the treatment of packets. Each table is associated with a different kind of packet processing. Packets are processed by sequentially traversing...

For example, if a router on the Internet is frequently congested and packets are lost or delayed due to that, it will be replaced by several interconnected...

performance: Data link layer processing and extracting the packet Decoding the packet header Looking up the destination address in the packet header Analyzing other...

design of parallel datapath packet processing because there was a very quick adoption of these multiple-core processors for the datapath and the control...

A larger MTU also requires processing of fewer packets for the same amount of data. In some systems, per-packet-processing can be a critical performance...

Packet injection (also known as forging packets or spoofing packets) in computer networking, is the process of interfering with an established network...

performance of packet processing. In these implementations, the networking stack is split into two layers and the lower layer processes the majority of...

Forward error correction (FEC) on OTN signals Packet processing in conjunction with mapping/de-mapping of packet into and out of OTN signals The OTN signals...

and computer networking, a network packet is a formatted unit of data carried by a packet-switched network. A packet consists of control information and...

System Packet Interface (SPI) family of Interoperability Agreements from the Optical Internetworking Forum specify chip-to-chip, channelized, packet interfaces...

Packet over SONET/SDH, abbreviated POS, is a communications protocol for transmitting packets in the form of the Point to Point Protocol (PPP) over SDH...

following components: Processing delay (the time taken to process a packet in a network node) Queuing delay (the time a packet waits in a queue until...

packet switching is a method of grouping data into short messages in fixed format, i.e. packets, that are transmitted over a digital network. Packets...
