Abstract
A virtual segmentation system and a method of operating the same. In one embodiment, the virtual segmentation system includes a protocol data unit receiver subsystem configured to (i) receive at least a portion of a protocol data unit and (ii) store the at least a portion of the protocol data unit in at least one block, and a virtual segmentation subsystem, associated with the protocol data unit receiver subsystem, configured to perform virtual segmentation on the protocol data unit by segmenting the at least one block when retrieved without reassembling an entirety of the protocol data unit.
