摘要:
A switching system includes a data collection device, one or more switching devices. The data collection device is for collection of first data subject to specific processing. The switching devices directly or indirectly connected to the data collection device. At least one of the switching devices includes a determination module that determines whether received data is the first data or is second data which is not subject to the specific processing, and a marking module that puts first marking on the received data determined to be the first data. The switching devices respectively includes a transferring processor that executes a first transfer process for sending the received data to the data collection device when the received data has the first marking, and a second transfer process that sends the received data to the specified destination when the received data does not have the first marking.

It is intended to reduce a power consumption without degrading a communication quality of a packet transfer device. One or more of a receiver, a switch unit, and a transmitter include a QoS control circuit for applying QoS control to received packets. There is provided a power saving operation mode that enables power saving operation by changing a grain size of the QoS control according to a flow rate of the packets, and controlling whether or not to supply an electric power to the QoS control circuit or a part of the QoS control circuit, according to the flow rate of the packets.

A network system comprises a first communication device being set up with a first address; and a second communication device connected with the first communication device via a network and being set up with a second address, wherein the first communication device includes a monitor frame transmitter configured to generate a monitor frame including the second address as a destination address and the first address as a source address, and to output the generated monitor frame to the network; and a monitoring-response frame monitor configured to monitor reception of a monitoring-response frame sent back from the second communication device, wherein the second communication device includes: a monitoring-response frame transmitter configured to, in response to reception of the monitor frame, generate the monitoring-response frame by exchanging the destination address in the received monitor frame for a source address and the source address in the received monitor frame for a destination address, and output the generated monitoring-response frame to the network.

Data transfer mode between a plurality of circuit mod modules connected to a data bus is dynamically switched between a time division, space-division multiplexing and so forth for improving data transfer efficiency. For example, the data bus of 4n bit width is used as two data bus of 2n bit width in certain period (transfer mode “b”), as one data bus of 4n bit width in a certain period (transfer mode “a”), and further as four data bus of n bit width in a further certain period (transfer mode “c”). A command of switching of the transfer mode is performed by a transfer control circuit common to respective circuit modules. In response to command of the transfer mode, switching of the bit width of data and switching of the bus connecting condition are performed by the bus adapter circuit.

A memory pool control circuit according to the invention is provided with a CAM (content addressable memory: associative memory) 11. It further has a monitoring module 12, an area unlocking module 13, a local accessing module 14, an area locking module 15, a search control machine 16, and a timer 17. A plurality of tasks (processes) are operating on a processor 18, and one memory 19 is commonly used by the plurality of tasks (processes). When a task (process) has secured a memory space (called a block here), free areas therein are managed by a group of pointers. A block is divided into a plurality of fixed length fields. A group of flags match the memory space (block) in one-to-one correspondence. The flag group indicate whether or not individual fields are being used, i.e. the flag group indicates whether each individual field is being used or unused (free).

To provide a method of searching a CAM which enables to search an address of matching contents cyclically recorded in a memory array of the CAM with a priority at once, the method of searching a CAM array (2) having first address lines (20), whereof certain are made active when the CAM array (2) is searched with a search key, comprises steps of: obtaining restricted search results by making address lines of the first address lines (20) having addresses lower than a restriction address inactive; selecting logic of third address lines (70) from logic of the restricted search results when any of the restricted search results is active, and from logic of the first address lines (20) as it is, when none of the restricted search results is active; and outputting a searched address by encoding a lowest active address line of the third address lines (70).

A transfer control table contains a source memory designation field, a desired region designation field, a shifting amount designation field, and a destination memory designation field. An source selection circuit selects source designation word data from the source word data stored in the source memory according to source memory designation data contained in the source memory designation field to provide the source designation word data. A transfer data bit operation circuit extracts, in response to the source designation word data, only the word data required for transfer as valid word data according to desired region designation data contained in the desired region designation field to shift the valid word data by a bit width that is predetermined based on shifting amount designation data contained in the shifting amount designation field and then to provide the shifted valid word data. A destination selection circuit selects which designation region in the destination memory the shifted valid word data are to be stored in and then provides the shifted valid word data to the designated area in the destination memory.
摘要:
A network system includes: a core switch; and an edge switch. The edge switch includes: a join message identification unit; and a marking unit. The join message identification unit identifies a join message from among MAC frames from the user network. The marking unit marks mark information to a header of a MAC-in-MAC frame in which the identified join message is encapsulated. The core switch includes: a plurality of input/output ports; a mark identification unit; and a port setup unit. The mark identification unit identifies a MAC-in-MAC frame in which a header is marked with the mark information. The port setup unit associates a multicast group of a join message which is encapsulated in the identified MAC-in-MAC frame, with an input/output port to which the identified MAC-in-MAC frame is input.
