Publication number: 20230098017Abstract: Technologies for switching network traffic include a network switch. The network switch includes one or more processors and communication circuitry coupled to the one or more processors. The communication circuity is capable of switching network traffic of multiple link layer protocols. Additionally, the network switch includes one or more memory devices storing instructions that, when executed, cause the network switch to receive, with the communication circuitry through an optical connection, network traffic to be forwarded, and determine a link layer protocol of the received network traffic. The instructions additionally cause the network switch to forward the network traffic as a function of the determined link layer protocol. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2022Publication date: March 30, 2023Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Matthew Adiletta, Aaron Gorius, Myles Wilde, Michael Crocker
