Routing for cats

MeowRouter is a hardware accelerated IP packet forwarder running on programmable ICs. MeowRouter utilizes the Cuckoo hashing algorithm, and supports external memory accesses through AXI interface, so it is capable of handling large amount of network traffic / pps with huge routing tables.

This repository contains the RTL source code for the data plane, and is intended to be used alongside an CPU. See MeowRouter-top for an example.

See AUTHORS file

MeowRouter's directory structure follows the Scala convention, which is:

• src/main/scala contains all the source code
• src/main/test contains all the unit tests

src/main/scala/router.scala contains the source for the main router module Source code is divided into the following components:

• acceptor: Packet receptor + parser
• data: Shared data definations
• arp: ARP cache/matcher
• forward: Forwarding table
• encoder: Packet serializer
• transmitter: Packet transmitter
• adapter: CPU rx/tx buf
