In wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks, tens or hundreds of wavelengths can be transmitted over a single fiber. As transmission line speed goes to 10Gb/s and beyond, ternary CAM (TCAM) is usually employed for wire speed packet classification. To the best of authors’ knowledge, this is the first paper that addresses the impact of WDM transmission on the power consumption of packet classification...
