System And Method For Efficient Traffic Processing
First Claim
1. A method for traffic processing comprising:
- receiving a traffic of an original data width narrower than or equal to a predetermined data width;
reformatting said received traffic into bus traffic of said predetermined data width;
recognizing a specific traffic within said bus traffic;
processing said bus traffic;
prioritizing said specific traffic over other traffic in said bus traffic; and
outputting said bus traffic according to said prioritizing result.

Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method for traffic processing to improve the overall performance of data traffic network. The method comprises receiving a traffic having data width narrower than or equal to a predetermined data width; reformatting the received traffic into bus traffic of said predetermined data width; recognizing a specific traffic within the bus traffic; processing the bus traffic; prioritizing the specific traffic, such as voice traffic, over other traffic in said bus traffic; and outputting the bus traffic according to the prioritizing result. Thus, the method secures network resources for voice traffic and avoids frame flooding which may otherwise cause system breakdown. Further disclosed herein is a system for traffic processing. The system comprises a circuit for receiving and reformatting a traffic having data width narrower than or equal to a predetermined data width into bus traffic of said predetermined data width; a circuit for distinguishing a specific traffic within said bus traffic; a processor for processing the reformatted bus traffic; and a circuit for prioritizing the specific traffic over other traffic in said bus traffic. This invention further provides a device for secure frame transfer. The device comprises a receiving circuit for receiving a frame, and an ingress processor for processing the frame to decide whether or not to further process the frame.
