SPB algorithm makes use of the parallelism of TCAM adequately, and improves the utilization of TCAM by optimum partitions. With the aid of effective management algorithm and memory image, SPB separates critical searching from assistant searching, and improves the searching effect. One performance test indicates that this algorithm can work with different TCAM to meet the requirement of wire-speed routing lookup.展开更多
