ABSTRACT:
Address filters3-0to3-m take only those of unicast packets which are addressed to output ports corresponding to them, and an address filter4for multicasting takes only multicast packets. When multicast packet output buffers5-0to5-m receive output permissions from output arbitrators6-0to6-m, they send out packets in the accumulation order thereof to corresponding OR gates9-0to9-m for being outputted to output ports. A multicast packet output buffer7outputs packets to the output ports when they obtain output permissions from the output arbitrators6-0to6-m corresponding to the output ports, which output data for multicasting from a bit map table8are to be outputted from.
