Abstract:
A method and apparatus of a network element that processes data using a data processing pipeline with standby memory is described. In one embodiment, the network element prepares a new image for the data processing pipeline of the network element, where the data processing pipeline processes incoming network data received by the network element and the new image modifies a current set of functionalities of the data processing pipeline. The network element further writes the new image into a standby memory of the data processing pipeline, where the network element includes an active memory that programs the current set of functionalities of the data processing pipeline. In addition, the network element programs the data processing pipeline using the new image. The network element additionally processes the incoming network data received by using the data processing pipeline using modified current set of functionalities.

Claim (Index 20):
A method to process data by a network element with a data processing pipeline, the method comprising:\n preparing a new image for a standby data processing pipeline of the network element, wherein the data processing pipeline includes an active data processing pipeline and the standby data processing pipeline, the active data processing pipeline processes incoming network data currently being received by the network element and the new image programs a new set of functionalities of the standby data processing pipeline; writing the new image into a standby memory of the data processing pipeline, wherein the network element includes an active memory that programs the current set of functionalities of the active data processing pipeline; programming the standby data processing pipeline using the new image; and processing the incoming network data received with the standby data processing pipeline using the new set of functionalities.
