Abstract
Methods and systems for processing data are disclosed herein and may comprise receiving packetized data via at least one input port in an 802.1p and 802.1Q QoS compliant Ethernet switch integrated within a single gigabit Ethernet IP telephone chip that processes multiple voice channels. A priority class may be assigned by the 802.1p and 802.1Q compliant QoS Ethernet switch to at least a portion of the received packetized data. The received packetized data may be processed by the 802.1p and 802.1Q QoS compliant Ethernet switch based on the assigned priority class. The priority class may comprise a high priority class and/or a low priority class. If the priority class comprises a high priority class, the portion of the received packetized data may be buffered in a high priority buffer integrated within the 802.1p and 802.1Q QoS compliant Ethernet switch.
