Abstract
Presented herein is a scheme for processing multilayered packets. In one embodiment, an application engine aligns a lower level packet header with data objects in the multilayered packet. Additionally, the memory stores the objects of the multilayered packet, such that the objects start at the beginning of a data word. Remainder portions of data words can store 0's. Additionally, an object table stores records comprising object identifiers associated with particular objects, and the address where the particular object is stored.
