Abstract

An arrangement and a method for processing data of multiprotocol data packets comprises at least one multiplexer connected to input ports; at least one first programmable data processing unit configured to provide header words and into payload words; a buffer management unit configured to generate localization data which specifies a corresponding memory area of the payload memory; a descriptor generator unit for generating data packet descriptors; a RISC processor configured to generate, in dependence on the data packet descriptors, header data for transmit data packets and payload processing instructions for processing data of the data packet payload words, stored in the payload memory, of the associated received data packet; and at least one second programmable data processing unit configured to process the payload words from the payload memory in accordance with the payload processing instructions and assembles the payload words with the header data to form transmit data packets.
