| 1. An apparatus comprising:
a transmitting processor including a packet classifying unit adapted to classify packets to be processed in a receiving processor
and packets to be forwarded via the transmitting processor, the transmitting processor and the receiving processor having
different traffic processing speeds;
a buffer adapted to store the packets to be forwarded from the packet classifying unit to the receiving processor; and
the receiving processor including a token driver adapted to output the packets stored in the buffer in accordance with a token
bucket algorithm in response to an intertupt signal of the transmitting processor and to transmit the packets to a corresponding
application, and a monitoring unit adapted to analyze and monitor a resource occupancy rate and a traffic characteristic used
by the token driver to set an amount of tokens.
