Methods, systems, and computer program products for processing a packet-object using multiple pipelined processing modules

A packet is processed by encapsulating the packet with a packet-object header if the packet does not have a packet-object header. The encapsulated packet is processed based on information contained in the packet-object header using a plurality of transform modules that are coupled to each other in a...

Zusammenfassung:A packet is processed by encapsulating the packet with a packet-object header if the packet does not have a packet-object header. The encapsulated packet is processed based on information contained in the packet-object header using a plurality of transform modules that are coupled to each other in a series or pipeline configuration. The plurality of transform modules process the encapsulated packet independent of each other.
