Abstract
A high-speed data-plane packet aggregation and disaggregation method is disclosed. The method includes following steps: receiving a plurality of packets by the P4 switch; parsing each of the plurality of packets by using a parse graph; determining the type of the packets by using a match-action table; conducting packet aggregation and disaggregation process at the pipeline of the P4 switch; and transmitting the aggregated packet or the original data packet to a deparser of the P4 switch and outputting the aggregated packet or the original data packet by the P4 switch.
