Abstract: The present disclosure provides mechanisms to optimize filter processing. Conventional filter processing techniques involve dividing a batch of received data packets into multiple Access Control Lists (ACLs) per filter group, and thus, cannot leverage of optimal ACL processing of large packet batches using the latest processor instruction sets such as 512 bit wide instructions. The filter processing techniques discussed in the present disclosure, some or all rules for a batch of packets are included in a single ACL look-up by including a filter group identifier (ID) in each rule, and also adding the filter group ID to a field of the packet undergoing the ACL look-up. This avoids false matches while also employing a single ACL look-up for an entire batch of packets, regardless of batch-size. The filter processing techniques can be applied to DOCSIS packet processing pipelines and/or other filtering mechanisms.

Abstract: Telemetry information provided by a computing device includes switching key performance indicators (KPIs), platform KPIs, and topology information. The telemetry information is used to identify performance issues at the computing device, such as packets being dropped in a virtual switching stack or misconfiguration errors.

A virtual switching controller can identify remedial actions that can be taken at the computing device to remedy a performance issue. A remedial action can be taken automatically, subject to user approval, or automatically after additional criteria are met.
