Abstract
A method and apparatus for processing data packets in flow-aware network nodes is disclosed for storing flow data without altering transmission data throughput for a limited cost. The method and apparatus for processing data packets in flow-aware network nodes includes alternate usage of a fast access internal memory and a slower speed access external memory which provides low latency yet comprehensive flow-awareness. The method for processing data packets in flow-aware network nodes is particularly useful for overcoming requiring extensive usage of fast access memory of flow-aware network nodes known in the art.
