Embodiment Construction
[0054] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0055] TCAM is a three-state content addressable memory. Each bit data in TCAM has three states: in addition to the ordinary "0" and "1", there is also a "don't care" (that is, no need to match the bit) state, so it is called "three states". The "three-state" function is realized by a mask, that is, the mask is 0, which means "don't care" the given key value; the mask is 1, which means that the given key value needs to be exactly matched. This characteristic of TCAM enables it to complete both exact matching and fuzzy matching. Another feature of TCAM is "parallel search", that is, given a key value, TCAM will match all hardware entries at the same time, and return the entry index with the smallest address index value.
[0056] The embodiment of the present invention uses RAM to store the hash table as the main memory for MAC addres...
