Intel internet exchange architecture and applications
A practical guide to IXP2XXX network processors
Résumé
The network processors included in Intel IXA family offer developers unparalleled performance in a programmable engine. And now, engineers can prepare themselves to get the most out of their Intel® IXA-based designs by reading this comprehensive book focused on the newly introduced IXP2400 and IXP2800 network processors.
If you are writing network software or you are designing a circuit board or a field programmable gate array (FPGA), this invaluable resource will help you to accelerate development and improve product quality. Professionals who work in support, management, sales, or marketing for such products will find the information highly useful for keeping pace with these rapidly developing product areas.
Inside you will learn about the internal and external architecture of the IXP2400 and IXP2800 network processors. Specifically, the author describes:
- Performance estimation techniques.
- Multiprocessing and multithreading techniques to maximize performance.
- Ways of mapping tasks to multiple microengines using Hyper Task Chaining or Pool of Threads programming models.
- How the integrated software programming framework supports modular and portable software applications.
