ABSTRACT:
Packetized voice, video, and data traffic (data frames) are received in a communication traffic sorter. The data frames have a dispatch priority corresponding to their transmission characteristics (flow) and a quality of service parameters. The communication traffic sorter analyzes information in data packets within each data frame and determines an optimum flow for the data frames. A data frame is assigned to a selected queue based on an analysis of the information in its data packets. A data frame may also be assigned to a queue based on a prior analysis of a data frame with like transmission characteristics. Results of analysis are stored and indexed to facilitate processing of subsequent data frames. The network access sorter has circuits to un-pack and re-pack the data frame, when called for, to allow user transmitted data to be processed to create a modified data frame. The data frame may then be dispatched with a second dispatch priority on a bus for distribution to end users where previously assigned quality of service is maintained or exceeded.
