Abstract
The present invention provides a circuit within a switch, wherein the circuit includes a memory and a control circuit. The memory includes at least a first area and a second area, the first area is used to provide a minimum guaranteed storage space for each of a plurality of egress queues, the second area is used to provide a shared space of the plurality of egress queues. The control circuit is coupled to the memory, and when an input port of the switch receives an input packet and stores the input packet into the memory, the control circuit dynamically determines a size of the second area according to a number of the egress queues that the input packet is forwarded to.
