摘要:
A device may store a credit value for each of multiple output components. The device may receive packets from a network device via an input component. The device may cause the input component to queue the packets. The device may selectively dequeue a packet from the input component, to be sent to an output component, based on whether the credit value for the output component satisfies a credit threshold. The device may send the packet to the output component based on a destination of the packet when the packet is dequeued from the input component. The device may determine a size of the packet after the packet is dequeued. The device may update the credit value for the output component based on the size of the packet. The device may output the packet to another network device via the output component.
摘要:
An ingress fabric endpoint coupled to a switch fabric within a network device reorders packet flows based on congestion status. In one example, the ingress fabric endpoint receives packet flows for switching across the switch fabric. The ingress fabric endpoint assigns each packet for each packet flow to a fast path or a slow path for packet switching. The ingress fabric endpoint processes, to generate a stream of cells for switching across the switch fabric, packets from the fast path and the slow path to maintain a first-in-first-out ordering of the packets within each packet flow. The ingress fabric endpoint switches a packet of a first packet flow after switching a packet of a second packet flow despite receiving the packet of the first packet flow before the packet of the second packet flow.
