Method and system for translating between circuit and packet identifiers for a communication connection

摘要

A method and system for translating between circuit and packet identifiers for a communication connection includes receiving an uplink circuit frame for a connection. The uplink circuit frame includes a circuit identifier. A common key is determined for the connection based on the circuit identifier. A packet identifier is determined for the connection based on the common key without a data search by indexing into a bearer path mapping table using the common key. The uplink circuit frame is translated into an uplink packet with the packet identifier for transmission to a remote endpoint of the connection.
