The method includes: during reception of an Ethernet frame, when determining through analysis that a received Ethernet frame is a data frame, extracting frame length information and frame indication information in the data frame, and calculating a frame length mantissa according to the frame length information; writing the data frame into a small cache for storage according to the frame indication information, and counting write enable signals used for controlling writing of a data frame by using a base-N counter, so as to obtain a count value of the write enable signal; and comparing the frame length mantissa with the count value, and if a comparison result is consistent, then a data frame length being successfully checked, and writing the frame length information into the small cache for storage. | 2015-12-24 |

20150372934 | Switch for Scheduled Time-Sensitive Data Egress - Systems and methods for scheduling data egress using a time-sensitive (TS) network switch. The TS network switch may include a functional unit, a plurality of ports, and a plurality of queues. Each port may be associated with a set of network addresses for TS packets and may be configured with a set of egress periods. Each queue may be associated with a TS packet type and a port. The functional unit may be configured to receive TS packets asynchronously from a network node via a first port, determine a second port for egressing a TS packet, determine an egress period for egressing the TS packet, determine that the TS packet cannot currently be egressed from the second port, queue the TS packet in a first queue, where the first queue is associated with the second port, and egress the TS packet in the respective time window from the second port. | 2015-12-24 |
20150372935 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MIGRATION OF ACTIVE RESOURCES - Embodiments of the present invention include a method and apparatus for identifying at least one resource to be migrated from a source system to a target system; creating at least one resource in the target system with similar properties as the at least one resource to be migrated from the source system; and migrating the at least one resource from the source system to the target system. | 2015-12-24 |
