  Abstract

This paper proposes a packet header collector, based on a network processor with multi-threads, that shows a high throughput on gigabit network. The proposed collector has an architecture to separate packets coming from gigabit network into headers and payloads, and distribute them to multiple 100Mbit MAC ports. The architecture hiring a unique buffer management method and load distribution strategy among multiple processors is evaluated empirically in depth.
