Abstract
Devices and methods for processing data are disclosed. An example network device includes a plurality of ports. Each port of the example network device is configured to receive data and to send processed data. The example network device further includes a multi-part parser in communication with the plurality of ports. In the example device, the multi-part parser is configured to parse received data. Further in the example device, the multi-part parser comprises a plurality of parsing blocks that are configured to serially parse the received data, where each parsing block is configured to parse particular values. Still further in the example device, each of the plurality of parsing blocks, except a first parsing block, receives parsed data from a prior parsing block with fields of the particular values at a zero offset position.
