ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is described having a plurality of network processors that identify, for each of a plurality of packets, which multidimensional queue from amongst a plurality of multidimensional queues that each one of the plurality of packets should be enqueued into. Each of the network processors is able to identify a particular multidimensional queue for a different one of the plurality of packets.
