1. A packet-processing electronic subsystem comprising:

  • (a) a first ingress port having a data input and a data output;

    (b) a second ingress port having a data input and a data output;

    (c) a first egress port having a data input and a data output;

    (d) a second egress port having a data input and a data output, the first and second ingress ports and the first and second egress ports being separate from one another;

    (e) scheduler circuitry having;

    a first ingress input coupled to the first ingress port data output,a second ingress input coupled to the second ingress port data output,a first egress output coupled to the first egress port data input,a second egress output coupled to second egress port data input,a security context cache interface,a packet header processor interface, andan encryption interface;

    (f) a security context cache coupled to the scheduler circuitry security context cache interface and having a control interface;

    (g) a packet header processor coupled to the scheduler circuitry packet header processor interface and to the security context cache control interface;

    (h) an encryption module coupled to the scheduler circuitry encryption interface and to the security context cache control interface; and

    (i) in which the second ingress port is a Communication Processor Peripheral Interface (CPPI) direct memory access (DMA) streaming interface.
