Abstract

Systems and methods for improving performance of operations on management buses in network devices during communication-intensive operations, where a transceiver manager monitors the transceivers to determine when a communication-intensive operation has been initiated. The transceiver manager then determines which transceivers on the same SMBus are not involved in the communication-intensive operation and it reduces the polling rate for these other transceivers. When the communication-intensive operation has completed, the transceiver manager resets the polling rate for the transceivers. During the pendency of the communication-intensive operation, the transceiver manager may determine that a management operation has been issued for the transceivers undergoing the communication-intensive operation, in which case the communication-intensive operation is paused to allow completion of the management operation and then resumed.
