摘要:
A detector for determining which interface protocol is in use by a serialiser/deserialiser, and comprising detecting channels composed of clocked delays and bit comparators for detecting the presence of idle signals coded according to either ten-bit or five-bit protocols using either one or two clocks.

A method performs a lookup on a search key word, employing a trie database including multiple trie blocks that include pointers to other trie blocks. Each trie is accessible by means of a segment of the search key. A selected section of the search key word is applied to a content addressable memory. In the event of an absence of a match of the selected section with an entry in the content addressable memory, a trie search is performed on the whole search key word. In the event of a match of the selected section with an entry in the content addressable memory, a partial trie search is performed, commencing with a first segment of the search key word after the selected section that has been matched in the content addressable memory.

Detection of a signature in a data packet comprises performing a pre-classification of the packet, using header information and particularly a 5-tuple access control list, into one of a multiplicity of flows and directing the payload of the packet to a respective one of a multiplicity of deterministic finite state machines each of which stores a plurality of signatures as a sequence of states and acts only on the respective flow.
