20100235465 | HARDWARE-ACCELERATED HIGH AVAILABILITY INTEGRATED NETWORKED STORAGE SYSTEM - Disclosed is a system and methods for acceleration of the TCP/IP and the iSCSI protocols. The methods may be adapted to a wide variety of systems and applications that employ communications protocols including TCP, with or without iSCSI. Using a hardware-based acceleration approach, common case network traffic is rapidly processed at near line rate thereby improving overall performance and alleviating processing bottlenecks. | 09-16-2010 |
20090248830 | REMOTE DIRECT MEMORY ACCESS FOR iSCSI - A storage networking device provides remote direct memory access to its buffer memory, configured to store storage networking data. The storage networking device may be particularly adapted to transmit and receive iSCSI data, such as iSCSI input/output operations. The storage networking device comprises a controller and a buffer memory. The controller manages the receipt of storage networking data and buffer locational data. The storage networking data advantageously includes at least one command for at least partially controlling a device attached to a storage network. Advantageously, the storage networking data may be transmitted using a protocol adapted for the transmission of storage networking data, such as, for example, the iSCSI protocol. The buffer memory advantageously is configured to at least temporarily store at least part of the storage networking data at a location within the buffer memory that is based at least in part on the locational data. | 10-01-2009 |
20090073884 | NETWORK RECEIVE INTERFACE FOR HIGH BANDWIDTH HARDWARE-ACCELERATED PACKET PROCESSING - Disclosed is a system and methods for accelerating network packet processing for devices configured to process network traffic at relatively high data rates. The system incorporates a hardware-accelerated packet processing module that handles in-sequence network packets and a software-based processing module that handles out-of-sequence and exception case network packets. | 03-19-2009 |
20090063696 | SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR HIGH RATE HARDWARE-ACCELERATED NETWORK PROTOCOL PROCESSING - Disclosed is a system and methods for accelerating network protocol processing for devices configured to process network traffic at relatively high data rates. The system incorporates a hardware-accelerated protocol processing module that handles steady state network traffic and a software-based processing module that handles infrequent and exception cases in network traffic processing. | 03-05-2009 |
