Abstract

See full text

The present ATM switch includes a plurality of controllers, each of which contains a plurality of cell buffers to store cells for each VC. A plurality of arbitration buffers store pointers, on a VC priority level basis, to order the processing of cell transmissions. The arbitration buffers are processed in priority order, with an interrupt being generated by a timer associated with each arbitration buffer, other than the highest priority arbitration buffer, to ensure that each arbitration buffer is periodically processed.
