A method for reading and writing a forwarding information base, including receiving a write an associated data (AD) request used to modify the AD and a write a keyword (Key) request used to modify the Key corresponding to the AD, and before the write AD request and the write Key request pass through a cache, transforming, when any one stage to be read and written includes the Key, a row address in the write AD request into a row address that is same as a row address of a node block on which the Key is located, or transforming, when any one stage to be read and written does not include the Key, a row address in the write AD request and a row address in the write Key request into a same row address in the any one stage.

A method and structure for switching data is provided. An output port scheduler obtains state information of VOQs and available state information of input port data channels and output port buffers. The output port scheduler sends scheduling request information to a FIC of an input port whose input port data channel is ready in input ports corresponding to non-empty VOQs pointing to an output port. After receiving the scheduling request information sent by the output port schedulers, the FIC of the selected input port selects to respond to a scheduling request of one output port scheduler, and sends the VOQ pointing to the output port in the selected input port to the output port buffer. The output port scheduler schedules the VOQ received by the output port buffer out of a switch chip. Buffer resources are saved and the switching performance is improved.

Method for switching data and structure for switching data

A data transmission method is provided, which includes: obtaining a current queue length of a queue corresponding to an output port; when the current queue length meets a back-pressure requirement, determining a back-pressure priority corresponding to the current queue length according to the current queue length and a mapping relationship between a preset queue length and the back-pressure priority, and generating back-pressure information, where the back-pressure information inhibits a line card from sending data with a data priority less than or equal to the back-pressure priority to the output port; and sending the back-pressure information to a line card.

Data transmission method, device and system

The present invention provides a VLAN-based data packet transmission method and an Ethernet bridge device. The method includes: learning a member port corresponding to a VLAN according to a data packet received by an Ethernet bridge device, and storing a correspondence between a VLAN and the learnt member port; and forwarding the data packet by the Ethernet bridge device according to the correspondence between each VLAN and its member port that is stored.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and a system for implementing multicast using a slave block in DSL access technique. Several slave blocks are cascaded with a master block accessed to the DSL. The master block and slave block are respectively connected with DSL users via RTUs, and access an uplink via a network interface of the master block. The slave block is configured to support the IGMP proxy or the IGMP snooping so as to implement multicast function independently. This invention overcomes the shortcomings including the heavy burden on the master block, low efficiency and serious waste in bandwidth resulting from the fact that the operation of the slave block multicast member is implemented in the master block, thus increasing the efficiency of multicast and saving bandwidth of the master block.
