Subject: FIB LPM algorithm
Date: Mon, 7 Jun 2004 07:23:26 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9e3aacf40406070423583216f@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello all,

I was wondering if someone could point me to a discussion of what LPM
algorithm the Linux routing FIB uses? Is it detailed in the code
somewhere, or online, or in a book? I have perused the code somewhat
and it appears that it makes use of hash tables to store the FIB(s?),
but I can't seem to find the actual LPM operation used. Any help would
be appreciated. Thanks.
