Abstract: A device for processing a network packet includes a capturing unit, a look-up table supplying unit, a preprocessing unit and a control unit. The capturing unit is utilized for capturing an information from the network packet. The look-up table supplying unit is utilized for supplying a look-up table. The preprocessing unit is coupled to the capturing unit and the look-up table supplying unit, for comparing the information with the look-up table to generate a comparison result. The control unit is coupled to the preprocessing unit, for choosing a processing rule to process the network packet according to the comparison result.
