Abstract

Packets to be transmitted from a network device are buffered in queues in a first packet memory. In response to detecting congestion in a queue in the first packet memory, groups of multiple packets are transferred from the first packet memory to a second packet memory, the second packet memory configured to buffer a portion of traffic bandwidth supported by the network device. Prior to transmission of the packets among the one or more groups of multiple packets from the network device, packets among the one or more groups of multiple packets are transferred from the second packet memory back to the first packet memory. The packets transferred from the second packet memory back to the first packet memory are retrieved from the first packet memory and are forwarded to one or more network ports for transmission of the packets from the network device.
