    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for selectively accessing and independently sizing connection identification tables within a network switch. Upon receipt of a data unit, such as an asynchronous transfer mode cell at an input port of an Input Output Module, a plurality of selection bits are inserted into the cell header which are used to select one of a plurality of connection identifiers. The VPI/VCI addresses are mapped into a connection identifier and the connection identifier is also inserted within the respective cell header. The connection identifier may comprise an unicast connection identifier, a multicast connection identifier, or a redundant unicast identifier. The unicast, multicast and redundant identifiers are either stored in separate tables at call setup and the tables are independently selectable via use of the selection bits stored within the cell header. Alternatively, the selection bits are employed to specify a register which points to the first address for the respective type of identifiers. Thus, identifiers of a particular connection type are accessible via a base address plus an offset address. In the described manner, tables or portions of tables containing connection identifiers may be flexibly and independently sized.

The card cage includes an insert removably mounted to a mounting bar position between first and second ends of the card cage. The insert extends along a portion of the width of the card cage. When the insert is mounted to the mounting bar, a printed circuit card of a first length may be disposed between the insert and one of the card cage ends. When the insert is removed, a printed circuit card of a second length greater than the first length may be mounted between the first and second ends of the card cage. Plural mounting bars may be located between the respective card cage ends to accommodate printed circuit cards of different lengths.

    摘要: A queue control system is disclosed for use in connection with the transfer of information, in the form of information transfer units, in a digital network. The network provides a plurality of service rate classes, based on, for example transmission rates for the various paths. The information buffer control subsystem includes a information transfer unit receiver, a information transfer unit buffer and a group controller. The information transfer unit receiver receives the information transfer units, and the buffer is provided to buffer the received information transfer units prior to transmission. The group controller controls the buffering of information transfer units received by the information transfer unit receiver in the buffer. In that operation, the group controller aggregates the information transfer units for each path in the buffer according to respective service rate classes, in particular aggregating the information transfer units for each path in a queue and further aggregating the queues for the paths associated with each service rate class in a queue. A transmission scheduler is also disclosed for use in transferring information, in the form of information transfer units, each associated with a path, in a digital network. The network provides a plurality of service rate classes, based on, for example, transmission rates for the various paths. The information transfer units for each path in a path queue, and the path queues for the paths associated with each service rate class are aggregated in a service rate queue. The transmission scheduler includes a information transfer unit selector for selecting from among the service rate queues, one path queue to provide a information transfer unit for transmission, and a information transfer unit transmitter for transmitting the information transfer unit provided by the selected path queue.

    摘要: First and second control processor cards are employed in conjunction with first and second switch fabric cards to interconnect Input/Output cards in a telecommunications switch. The control processor cards provide a portion of the functionality previously associated with switch fabric cards, such as exertion of control over allocation of bandwidth within the switch. The control processor cards also provide new functionality. In particular, each control processor card can configure both switch fabric cards. Redundant control processor cards and redundant switch fabric cards are employed to provide a switch that is less susceptible to failure than switches with only redundant switch fabric cards. Hence, failure of a control processor card and a switch fabric card can be sustained without resulting in switch failure. Timing control functions may also be provided by a separate timing module card.

    摘要: A packet scheduler is disclosed which provides a high degree of fairness in scheduling packets associated with different sessions. The scheduler also minimizes packet delay for packet transmission from a plurality of sessions which may have different requirements and may operate at different transfer rates. When a packet is received by the scheduler, the packet is assigned its own packet virtual start time based on whether the session has any pending packets and the values of the virtual finish time of the previous packet in the session and the packets arrival time. The scheduler then determines a virtual finish time of the packet by determining the transfer time required for the packet based upon its length and rate and by adding the transfer time to the packet virtual start time of the packet. The packet with the smallest virtual finish time is then scheduled for transfer. By selecting packets for transmission in the above described manner, the available bandwidth may be shared in pro-rata proportion to the guaranteed session rate, thereby providing a scheduler with a high degree of fairness while also minimizing the amount of time a packet waits in the scheduler before being served.
