<p>A method and apparatus for performing an incremental update of a lookup table while the lookup table is available for searching is presented. To add or delete a route, a second set of routes is stored in a second memory space in the lookup table, while access is provided to the first set of routes stored in a first memory space in the lookup table. Access is provided to the first memory space through a first pointer stored in a subtree entry. After storing the second set of routes in the second memory space, access is switched to the second set of routes in the second memory space by replacing the first pointer stored in the subtree entry with a second pointer to the second memory space.</p> |
