摘要:
A number of network devices that control the communication of data frames between stations in a network are cascaded together to support a number of network stations. When a first device receives a data frame destined for a port on a second device, the first device transfers the data frame to the second device. The second device stores receive port information transmitted with the data frame and processes the data frame. If the second device identifies a congestion condition associated with processing the data, the second device transmits the receive port information back to the first device. The first device then performs a flow control-related operation on the port identified by the receive port information.

A method and system are provided for processing a data transport stream. The transport stream is parsed to derive multiple elementary substreams, each of which includes a received media access control address. The received media access control address is then compared in hardware against several stored media access control addresses.

A shared I/O subsystem for a plurality of computer systems. The shared I/O subsystem includes a plurality of ports that communicatively couple the computer systems to the shared I/O subsystem where each of the ports includes at least one corresponding bit in an adjustable span port register. Data packets arriving on the plurality of ports may be selectively provided to a span port based on a current state of the adjustable span port register.

A method and system are provided for defining a search space of a community in which a client may search for resources. A client providing a resource registers the resource with a core. The core then lists the resource with an advertising service, which serves multiple cores. A client searching for a resource can search in the client's core and within the advertising service serving the clients core. In addition, a client searching for resources can define a community of advertising services remote to the client's core, then designate the community when sending an attribute-based search for computer resources to the client's core. In some embodiments, once a community is defined, a client can subscribe to an events within the community by searching for an event distributor within the community. The client is then notified of events occurring within the community that match the client's event subscription.
