Software

SARA (Simple Active Router-assistant Architecture) is an active
execution environment designed to work in conjuction with legacy high
speed routers by extracting active processing from router's main CPU to
an assistant (a server, plain speaking) connected through a high speed
interface (LAN). (site web)
