Abstract
The invention relates to a method of processing data frames arriving on a network interface, comprising the following steps implemented in the network interface: storing a set of target positions (tgtPOS), positions in a frame at which are expected at least one parameter characterizing a subframe (ETH_TYPE) and parameters (SRC_IP, DST_IP) characterizing a client-server session; storing an expected value (xpVAL) for the subframe parameter; receiving a current frame and comparing the value (xtVAL) received at the position of the subframe parameter to the expected value; if equal, calculating an index (IDX) from the values received at the positions of the session parameters; and routing the current frame to a processing resource associated with the index.
