Did you mean that the incoming packets matching particular filters
(using JCapture) are diverted to the CPU, and an Oplet service
(implementing RED or alike) queues then forwarded them to the Accelar
egree ports?

The answer is yes! However, the traffic must be experiemental since the
Accelar does not have enough memory to buffer those packets.
