Platform FPGAs enable network processing platforms

摘要

Revenue-generating routers require a technology platform that provides significant packet processing power (even under worst-case traffic conditions) while offering flexibility at lower cost. The rapid advancement of FPGA technology has made it possible to design entire routers and switchblades based on FPGAs, Today's Platform FPGAs provide a complete platform for packet processing, classification and policing, traffic management, backplane communication, etc.
