Abstract

A device and a method for transmitting data within a network switch is provided. The method implemented by computer makes it possible to transmit to a receiver network domain only the applicational data necessary for this domain. The method identifies in a frame received solely the data corresponding to each addressee network domain, and then the frame is disassembled so as to write each suite of data into an assigned memory area of the network switch. The method moreover makes it possible to dispatch a frame with only the data of an addressee network domain by constructing a new frame with solely the data necessary for the addressee network which have been stored in a memory area of the switch.
