<p>A synchronous network traffic processor that synchronously processes, analyzes and generates data for high-speed network protocols, on a wire-speed, word-by-word basis. The synchronous network processor is protocol independent and may be programmed to convert protocols on the fly. The synchronous network traffic processor includes a data compare unit (110) a data modify unit (120) an execution control unit (130) a peripheral unit (140), an input pipeline unit (150), an instruction memory (160) and a bank of general purpose registers (170). An embodiment of the synchronous network processor described has a low gate count and can be easily implemented using programmable logic. An appropriately programmed synchronous network traffic processor may replace modules traditionally implemented with hard-wired logic or ASIC.</p> |
