ABSTRACT:
A packet switching system (100) employs packet reassembly hardware (214) in a packet switch (140) to improve overall system throughput during the handling of transmission packets (310) that require reassembly. In this manner, reassembly is accomplished with minimal processor (110) intervention and without having to duplicate the message data portion (312) of a transmission packet (310) into a different memory location prior to retransmission.
