摘要： Devices, systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with cascaded memory tables for searching are described. In one embodiment, an integrated chip is implemented with two or more address tables. The two or more address tables are implemented with separate memory tables to store addresses. The two or more address tables are comprised of a first address table and a second address table. Connection lines connect the first address table and the second address table to create a cascaded address table. Search logic initiates a search of the first address table for an address. If the address is not found, the search logic initiates a search of the second address table through the connection lines.

摘要： An apparatus for forwarding packets includes a packet processing pipeline having a processing unit that processes packets compliant with a recognized communication protocol. A first port coupled to the packet processing pipeline is configured to receive a packet that does not comply with the recognized communication protocol and has a header that conforms to a second communication protocol. A data extraction unit extracts first destination information from the header of the packet and, based on the first destination information, generates second destination information that conforms to the recognized communication protocol. The processing unit determines, based on the second destination information, an egress interface to which the packet is to be forwarded.

摘要： Aspects of the disclosure provide a network device. The network device includes a first port coupled to a first device to communicate with the first device, and a clock wander compensation module. The first port recovers a first clock based on first signals received from the first device. The clock wander compensation module includes a global counter configured to count system clock cycles based on a system clock of the network device, and a first port counter configured to count first clock cycles based on the recovered first clock. Further, the first port transmits a first pause frame to the first device based on the global counter and the first port counter.

摘要： A network device includes a master physical layer and a slave physical layer device configured to communicate with a plurality of network devices. The master physical layer device includes a signal generator module configured to generate a first clock that is syntonized to a grandmaster clock having a fixed frequency; and a frequency adjusting module configured to, at a predetermined time interval, adjust a frequency of the first clock to the fixed frequency of the grandmaster clock. The slave physical layer device includes a time of day calculating module configured to calculate a first time of day of the slave physical layer device based on a second clock that is asynchronous to the first clock, and a period adjusting module configured to synchronize the first time of day to a second time of day of the master physical layer device based on the predetermined time interval.

摘要： A first network device includes a first port to provide first data traffic to a first storage area network, a second port to provide second data traffic to a local area network, and memory shared between the first port and the second port to temporarily store the first data traffic in N first buffers and the second data traffic in M second buffers. A queue control module allocates a first memory space of the N first buffers to the first port and a second memory space of the M second buffers to the second port. An adjustment module adjusts a first amount of the first memory space and a second amount of the second memory space in response to a congestion event is caused by a first data traffic. Up to all of the first memory space and the second memory space is allocated to the N first buffers.
