說明書
At 950, when every status indicator from the list of status indicators has the second value, the value of every status indicator from the list of status indicators can be changed from the second value to the first value. Specifically, when every status indicator from the status indicator list has the second value as a result of that status indicator having been selected, the schedule module can be configured to change the value of every status indicator from the status indicator list from the second value to the first value. In the example of
After 950, every status indicator from the status indicator list has the first value, which indicates each of the egress ports associated with the status indicators is available for sending next data cell. When next data cell arrives the switch module, the same operations are repeated at the switch module starting from 910.
