Accessing shared resources by intelligent components is disclosed. In various embodiments, a system is configured to select a host for a bus and includes a bus configured to have a host, a shelf controller configured to host the bus and access an external interface via the bus, a plurality of line cards configured to host the bus and access an external interface via the bus, and a host selection device configured to select the shelf controller or one of the line cards as the host of the bus.

Providing intelligent components access to an external interface

Booting intelligent components from a shared resource is disclosed. In various embodiments, booting a line card from a system storage device includes obtaining access to the system storage device, downloading operational code from the system storage device, and releasing access of the system storage device. The downloaded operational code is used by the line card to boot.

Booting intelligent components from a shared resource

A method and system is provided to enable redundancy in the communication between a plurality of peripheral devices and redundant hosts through redundant switches. The peripheral devices and the host are connected through a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCI-Express) architecture in a data processing system. In an embodiment of the invention, the system includes a switch, a redundant switch, and switch-level exchanging means. The switch-level exchanging means enables the exchange of data packets between the peripheral devices and the host, through an available switch. The available switch is either the switch or the redundant switch. In another embodiment of the invention, the system also includes a redundant host and host-level exchanging means. The host-level exchanging means enables the exchange of data packets between an available host and the available switch. The available host is either the host or the redundant host.

System and method for enabling redundancy in PCI-Express architecture

The present invention is directed to a network switch that determines when specific content is hot and directs flow to one or more cache servers. The architecture of the present invention can include a cache and a digest generator to store predetermined objects in the cache based on the digest generated by the digest generator.

Intelligent demand driven recognition of URL objects in connection oriented transactions

The present invention is directed to a network switch that determines when specific content is hot and directs flow to one or more cache servers. The architecture of the present invention includes a decryption processor for authenticating clients and decrypting and encrypting transaction requests before the transaction requests are routed by the switch.

Non-intrusive multiplexed transaction persistency in secure commerce environments

The present invention is directed to a network switch that determines when specific content is hot and directs flow to one or more cache servers. The architecture can include a tag generator to generate unique tags corresponding to a server in a plurality of servers, a content pre-fetching algorithm to retrieve information before the information is requested by determining the hotness of the information, and a cache server in which stored information is configured based upon the relative degrees of hotness of the stored information.
