ABSTRACT:
An input line interface device that is used to accommodate packets from a high-speed line efficiently and to reduce a processing load on a back stage caused by routing control. A packet allotting section divides a variable-length packet, allots divided packets to parallel lines, and outputs the packets. A flow group classifying section classifies the packets into flow groups on each of the parallel lines. A sequence number giving section gives the packets sequence numbers corresponding to or independent of the flow groups. A buffering section stores the packets to which the sequence numbers have been given in a buffer or reads out them from the buffer to exercise sequence control over the packets in the flow groups. A flow separating switch separates the packets according to the flow groups and outputs the packets.
