Abstract
Virtual concatenation circuitry is disclosed for implementation in a network element of a data communication network. The virtual concatenation circuitry in a preferred embodiment is operative: (i) to maintain, for each of the individual member streams of a virtual concatenation stream, a corresponding counter which tracks pointer adjustments for that member stream; and (ii) to generate pointers based on values of the counters so as to substantially equalize incoming and outgoing pointer adjustments for the member streams at the network element.
