  • System for deriving hash values for packets in a packet processing system
    Patent number: 7502374
    Abstract: A system for deriving hash values for packets in a packet processing system is described. In this system, hash derivation logic is configured to derive a hash value for the packet responsive to a key that drives processing of the packet.
