摘要: A route for a data unit through network may be defined based on number of next hops. Exemplary embodiments described herein implement router forwarding table as chained list references to In one implementation, device includes that includes: first configured store, each plurality routes units in network, chain links hops the routes; and second store The also engine assemble using retrieve forward assembled
