This paper will present a solution to eliminate the requirements of sorting by prefix length in IP forwarding devices using Ternary Content Addressable Memories (TCAMs). This will...
Virtual routers are a promising way to provide network services such as customer-specific routing, policy-based routing, multi-topology routing, and network virtulization. However...
Hashing technique have been widely adopted for various computer network applications such as IP address lookup and intrusion detection, among which XOR-hashing is one of most popu...
A multigigabit IP router may receive several millions packets per second from each input link. For each packet, the router needs to find the longest matching prefix in the forw...
