Abstract

A switching system includes a content-addressable memory (CAM) and several processing nodes. The CAM can be selectively connected to any one or more of the processing nodes during operation of the switching system, without having to power down or otherwise reboot the switching system. The CAM is selectively connected to a processing node in that electrical paths between the CAM and the processing nodes can be established, torn down, and re-established during operation of the switching system. The switching system can include a connection matrix to selectively establish electrical paths between the CAM and the processing nodes.
