    Abstract: Techniques are presented herein to facilitate latency measurements in a networking environment. A first network device receives a packet for transport within a network domain that comprises a plurality of network devices. The plurality of network devices have a common time reference, that is, they are time synchronized. The first network device generates timestamp information indicating time of arrival of the packet at the first network device. The first network device inserts into the packet a tag that comprises at least a first subfield and a second subfield. The first subfield comprising a type indicator to signify to other network devices in the network domain that the tag includes timestamp information, and the second subfield includes the timestamp information. The first network device sends the packet from to into the network domain to another network device. Other network devices which receive that packet can make latency measurements.

    Abstract: A packet is received at an ingress port of a network device. Based on forwarding information in the packet, an adjacency point is generated using a forwarding information database. If the packet is a routed packet, the adjacency pointer is used as an index to an entry in a media access control (MAC) table that identifies an egress port for the packet. If the packet is not a routed packet, a search is performed in the MAC table to locate an entry in the MAC table that identifies an egress port for the packet.

    Abstract: A ternary content-addressable memory (TCAM) that is implemented based on other types of memory (e.g., SRAM) in conjunction with processing, including hashing functions. Such a H-TCAM may be used, for example, in implementation of routing equipment. A method of storing routing information on a network device, the routing information comprising a plurality of entries, each entry has a key value and a mask value, commences by identifying a plurality of groups, each group comprising a subset number of entries having a different common mask. The groups are identified by determining a subset number of entries that have a common mask value, meaning at least a portion of the mask value that is the same for all entries of the subset number of entries.
