Abstract: The present invention provides mechanisms for transferring processor control of multiple network connections between two component devices of a computerized system, such as between a host CPU and a NIC. In one aspect of the invention, two or more network communications may each have a different state object in the upper layers of a network protocol stack, and have a common state object in the lower layers (e.g., the Framing Layer) of the network protocol stack. In part due to the commonalities in the lower software layer states, the invention provides for offloading processor control of multiple network communications at once, including long and short-lived connections. In addition, the invention can negotiate with an alternative peripheral device to offload the network communication to the alternative peripheral device in the event of a failover event, and provides a solution to incoming data packets destined for one or more VLANs. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A quick start barbecue comprises a kettle, column and base. A moveable charcoal grate, when lowered into the column, folds into a basket shape thereby holding the charcoal in a compact configuration ideal for starting. Once the charcoal has ignited the grate is lifted into the kettle and in the process unfolds into a flat shape with the charcoal evenly distributed in a configuration ideal for cooking. The charcoal may be started using crumpled newspaper placed below the charcoal grate in its lower "basket" position or by use of a self igniting propane torch removably affixed to the column. A long chimney may be placed in the kettle to aid starting and stored around the column. A removable ash drawer in the base makes cleanup easy. Removal of the ash drawer causes a gate to close so that excess ash is confined to the column while the drawer is out.
