1. An interface controller for a node for connecting to a nodal network, the node having a routing table identifying a second node in the nodal network, the node following a communications protocol represented as an abstract model comprising a plurality of layers including a physical layer for converting data between a signal transmitted across the nodal network and a bitwise representation of the signal within the node, and a data link layer for arranging the bits of the signal into logical data, the interface controller comprising:

  • a physical layer interface for implementing the physical layer; and

    a processing core coupled with the physical layer interface, the processing core implementing functionality of the data link layer,wherein the core implements the data link layer functionality utilizing microoperations in the core.
