Abstract
A method and device for routing fragmented data frames is provided. A data frame may be fragmented into a plurality of fragments, each fragment including a packet identifier and a fragment offset. The first fragment may further include a port number associated with a target partition of a plurality of partitions. If the fragment is a first fragment as determined from the fragment offset, the packet identifier and target partition is stored at a location in a hash table, the location calculated by using the packet identifier of the fragment as a hash key. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
