ABSTRACT:
A network interface card (NIC) with FIFO-based packet memory management including priority queues for controlling scheduling of network traffic to thereby prioritize packet transmission for time-critical applications. Furthermore, the invention comprises a system for early packet steering, wherein a packet header is analyzed without having to store the entire packet and before a packet payload arrives, thereby making it possible to make steering decisions before the complete arrival of the packet.
