Protocol Wrappers for Layered Network Packet Processing in Reconfigurable Networks

Florian Braun, John Lockwood, and Marcel Waldvogel:
Protocol Wrappers for Layered Network Packet Processing in Reconfigurable Networks,
IEEE Micro, Volume 22, Number 1, pp. 66-74, January/February 2002.

Abstract

A library of layered protocol wrappers has been developed that process Internet packets in reconfigurable hardware. These wrappers can be used with a reprogrammable network platform called the Field Programmable Port Extender (FPX) to rapidly prototype hardware circuits for processing Internet packets. We present a framework to streamline and simplify the development of networking applications that process ATM cells, AAL5 frames, Internet Protocol (IP) packets and UDP datagrams directly in hardware.
