Abstract
A method is provided for queuing packets. A packet may be received and its flow identified. It may then be determined whether a flow queue has been assigned to the identified flow. The identified flow may be dynamically assigning to an available flow queue when it is determined that a flow queue has not been assigned to the identified flow. The packet may be enqueued into the available flow queue.
