摘要:
A method and apparatus for bridging network protocols is disclosed. In one embodiment, a data frame is received and stored in a dual-port memory queue by hardware logic. An embedded processor is notified of the data frame once a programmable number of bytes of the data frame have been received and stored. Once notified, the embedded processor may then undertake to read the data frame from the memory queue while the hardware logic is still writing to the memory queue. In one embodiment, the processor may then translate the data frame's protocol and begin transmitting it out over a network connection, all while the data frame's payload is still being received.

摘要:
Methods and apparatus for bridging network protocols are disclosed. A protocol bridge may be used to function as a target for a network processor while performing a target mode operation, while functioning as an initiator on behalf of the network processor while performing an initiator mode operation. In one embodiment, the protocol bridge determines the mode of operation based on information in a received frame's header. In another embodiment, the protocol bridge couples a Fiber Channel device to a storage processor on a packet-over-SONET network.

An encryption device can include a tweaking value manager that is configured to generate an array of tweaking values corresponding to the array of data blocks based on a tweaking encryption key, a first encryption unit that is configured to encrypt a first portion of the array of data blocks into a first portion of encrypted data blocks based on corresponding tweaking values and a data encryption key, a second encryption unit that is configured to encrypt a second portion of the array of data blocks into a second portion of encrypted data blocks based on corresponding tweaking values and the data encryption key, and a data block combiner that is configured to combine the first portion of encrypted data blocks and the second portion of encrypted data blocks into an array of encrypted data blocks.
