Abstract

With the combination of hash table and multibit trie after sufficient and thorough analysis of the now available IPv4 routing algorithm,especially simple and efficient LFT(level forwarding table),the characteristics of IPv6 address and the prefix particularity of real live IPv6 backbone routing table,a hierarchical hash routing lookup algorithm for IPv6 is proposed which using the 32bits prefix as the lookup starting point to achieve faster search just need one memory access.This proposed scheme uses simple data structure,per-forms faster and supports update easily,and improve the IPv6 backbone network forwarding speed to meet the development demand for IPv6.
