| Abstract;We develped a dynamically reconfigurable network node that is tuned for high-speed and complex multilayer packet manipulation. The key idea is a dynamic function assignment mechanism; each packet processing task is assigned to several processing modules in an on-the-fly manner. With this mechanism, we can freely arrange the modules and add extra ones if more processing power is needed. In addition, the processing modules are realized using field programmable gate arrays(FPGAs), content addressable memory(CAM) and micro processing units(MPUs). Thus, the functionality of each module can be dynamically changed at anytime. In this paper, the system concept and its implementation and described with an example application. (author abst.) |
