Intermediate station
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining, at least in part, at an intermediate station one or more respective locations in a plurality of storage devices of one or more respective portions of at least one of check data and other data, the check data being generated, at least in part, at the intermediate station based at least in part upon the other data;
determining, at least in part, at the intermediate station, based at least in part upon forwarding information stored at least in part at the intermediate station, one or more ports of the intermediate station via which to forward one or more packets, the one or more packets being generated at the intermediate station based at least in part upon one or more other packets previously received via one or more other ports of the intermediate station, the one or more other packets comprising at least one of the check data and the other data.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is provided that may include determining, at least in part, at an intermediate station one or more locations in storage devices of one or more respective portions of check data and/or other data. The check data may be generated, at least in part, at the intermediate station based at least in part upon the other data. This method also may include determining, at least in part, at the intermediate station, based at least in part upon forwarding information, one or more ports of the intermediate station via which to forward one or more packets. The one or more packets may be generated at the intermediate station based at least in part upon one or more other packets received via one or more other ports of the intermediate station. The other packets may comprise the check data and/or other data.

9. An apparatus comprising:
-
circuitry to determine, at least in part, at an intermediate station one or more respective locations in a plurality of storage devices of one or more respective portions of at least one of check data and other data, the check data being generated, at least in part, at the intermediate station based at least in part upon the other data;
the circuitry also being capable of determining, at least in part, at the intermediate station, based at least in part upon forwarding information stored at least in part at the intermediate station, one or more ports of the intermediate station via which to forward one or more packets, the one or more packets being generated at the intermediate station based at least in part upon one or more other packets previously received via one or more other ports of the intermediate station, the one or more other packets comprising at least one of the check data and the other data. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 32, 35)

17. An article comprising:
-
a storage medium having stored thereon instructions that when executed by a machine result in the following;
determining, at least in part, at an intermediate station one or more respective locations in a plurality of storage devices of one or more respective portions of at least one of check data and other data, the check data being generated, at least in part, at the intermediate station based at least in part upon the other data;
determining, at least in part, at the intermediate station, based at least in part upon forwarding information stored at least in part at the intermediate station, one or more ports of the intermediate station via which to forward one or more packets, the one or more packets being generated at the intermediate station based at least in part upon one or more other packets previously received via one or more other ports of the intermediate station, the one or more other packets comprising at least one of the check data and the other data. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 33, 36)

25. A system comprising:
-
circuitry to determine, at least in part, at an intermediate station one or more respective locations in a plurality of storage devices of one or more respective portions of at least one of check data and other data, the check data being generated, at least in part, at the intermediate station based at least in part upon the other data;
the circuitry also being capable of determining, at least in part, at the intermediate station, based at least in part upon forwarding information stored at least in part at the intermediate station, one or more ports of the intermediate station via which to forward one or more packets, the one or more packets being generated at the intermediate station based at least in part upon one or more other packets previously received via one or more other ports of the intermediate station, the one or more other packets comprising at least one of the check data and the other data; and
a circuit card communicatively coupled to the intermediate station via a communication medium. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
