To meet growing terabit link rates, highly parallel and scalable architectures are needed for IP lookup engines in next generation routers. This paper proposes an SRAM-based multi...
Internet Protocol (IP) lookup in routers can be implemented by some form of tree traversal. Pipelining can dramatically improve the search throughput. However, it results in unbal...
Pipelined SRAM-based algorithmic solutions have become competitive alternatives to TCAMs (ternary content addressable memories) for high throughput IP lookup. Multiple pipelines c...
—Continuous growth in network link rates poses a strong demand on high speed IP lookup engines. While Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) based solutions serve most of toda...
The rapid growth of Internet population leads to the shortage of IP addresses. The next generation IP protocol, IPv6, which extends the IP address length from 32 bits to 128 bits,...
