A router includes a least a portion of mailboxes assigned to services carried on a network and an external interface unit. The external interface unit writes incoming data to mailboxes of the network and enables customers to read from each mailbox assigned to their services. A mailbox unit includes a multiplicity of mailboxes, each storing data for a service provided over a network, and a unit to manage buffering and quality of service requirements of the mailboxes and their existence. |
