Abstract:
In the subject system for a network switch may determine to transition the output port of the network switch between a store-and-forward (SAF) state and a cut-through (CT) state based on at least one factor. The network switch may determine, based on a condition of the output port, whether to transition the output port to a transition-cut-through (TCT) state or directly to a CT state when transitioning the output port to the CT state. When the output port is transitioned to the TCT state, the network switch may determine, based on the condition of the output port, whether to transition the output port to the CT state or to transition the output port back to the SAF state.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 14 , further comprising:\n determining that a new packet is not granted CT access, the new packet having newly arrived during the CT state of the output port; transitioning the output port from the CT state to a CT reject state during which one or more CT packets remaining in an egress buffer are drained, the CT packets having been received at the egress buffer via a CT path within the network switch during the CT state of the output port; and transitioning the output port from the CT reject state to the SAF state when the one or more remaining CT packets in the egress buffer are drained.
