HP (Hewlett-Packard) B Network Router User Manual


 
Generate: In this mode, a device is sending data to the Local bus.
Consume: In this mode, a device is receiving data from the Local bus.
Pipeline: In this mode, a device is neither generating nor consuming data.
Data is passed through from the device on the left to the device on the right.
Append: In this mode, a device pipelines the data until the end-of-frame
flag is detected. When the flag is detected, the device appends its block of
data and sets new end-of-block and end-of-frame flags.
Insert: In this mode, the device places a block of data and an end-of-block
flag on the Local bus, and then pipelines data from the device on the left to
the device on the right.
Strip: In this mode, a device alternates between the pipeline and consume
modes. It removes a block of data from the beginning of each frame.
Eavesdrop: In this mode, a device is simultaneously consuming and
pipelining data. It copies each byte of data as it is passed along.
Transform: In this mode, a device generates and consumes data.
