ABSTRACT:
The expanding IP data networks require address resolution mechanisms that are fast and able to handle a vast number of addresses. Novel fast address resolution mechanisms with a large address directory are described. The address resolution mechanisms make use of a compound indexing-searching technique to increase the speed and capacity of a translation apparatus. Further embodiments employ partial address scrambling to balance the loads of parallel search units.
