Abstract:
Entropy in routing tables may be increase to perform packet forwarding. Hash tables that store forwarding routes may be divided into multiple hash table segments. Forwarding routes may be stored across the hash table segments in different route segments. When looking up route segments to identify a forwarding route for a destination address of a network packet, digest values generated for previous route segments may be used to determine hash key values to identify hash table entries in a different hash table segment. The forwarding route may be identified according to the hash table entries located based on the digest values for previous route segments.

Claim (Index 18):
The system of  claim 14 , further comprising:\n at least one general processor; and another memory, storing program instructions that when executed by the at least one general processor cause the at least one general processor to implement a controller for the packet processing pipeline; the controller, configured to:\n identify a forwarding route for insertion into the hash table; \n divide the forwarding route into different segments corresponding to the different hash table segments; \n determine a hash key value for a most significant one of the different segments of the forwarding route according to the hash scheme; \n determine a hash key value for a subsequent one of the different segments of the forwarding route according to the hash scheme based on a digest value for a previous segment of the forwarding route; and \n write representations of the forwarding route in corresponding entries identified in the different hash table segments in the memory for the different segments of the forwarding route according to the hash key values determined for the most significant segment and the subsequent segment.
