Abstract: GE line card is the key module of the high speed router. After introducing the main
function of GE line card, this paper presents a FPGA-CAM-based approach whith supports
IPv4/IPv6/MPLS input data stream line-speed redirection process. In addition, a board level embedded CAM maintenance software design method also been introduced.Test resulte shows that this application fit the design requirement of 10 ports Gbit ethernet frame line-speed processing.
