기존 라우터시스템에서의 패킷 포워딩 엔진은 최적화된 룩업 알고리즘을 통한 소프트웨어 방식으로 구현되었으나, 처리해야 할 데이터가 폭주하면서 전용화된 룩업칩을 이용한 포워딩 엔진으로 대체되어 가고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 룩업칩 기반 패킷 포워딩 엔진은 가격이 비싼 것은 물론. 급변하는 통신 프로토콜에 적응하기 힘든 단점을 가지게 되었으며, 이로 인해서 최근에는 Network Processor 기반의 패킷 포워딩 엔진에 대한 개발이 활발해지고 있다. 본 연구소에서도 초고속광가입자망 사업에 적용되는 포워딩 엔진을 IBM의 2.5G Network Processor 인 NP4GS3 칩을 이용하고 있으며, GbE/POS/E-PON 등의 인터페이스를 지원하고 있다. 또한 본 사업에서는 가입자망에서의 Layer2 broadcasting시의 트래픽 폭주와 가입자간의 보안 기능 등을 지원하기 위해 VLAN 서비스를 적용할 예정이다. 본 논문에서는 일반적인 VLAN 기능에 대해서 알아보고, IBM NP4GS3에서 지원되는 VLAN 기능을 분석하였으며, 이를 토대로 NP4GS3 기반 패킷 포워딩 엔진에서 VLAN 구현 방안에 대하여 기술하였다.
