Abstract: A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes communicating a message from a network element to a remote data plane element in order to request a data plane resource for hosting a session for a particular subscriber. The remote data plane element is designated to host a data plane function for a particular mobile network subscriber and the data plane resource comprises at least one of memory space and processor allocation. The method further includes discovering nodes capable of supporting the control plane functions; discovering nodes capable of supporting the data plane functions for the session; and performing a system-specific internal configuration to support separation of the data plane functions and the control plane functions.

Abstract: Techniques are presented herein for optimizing and load balancing network traffic exchanged between devices in a network environment. At a first device in a cluster of devices in a network, a packet is received from a second device in the cluster. The packet comprises identifier information that is assigned to the first device. The identifier information is reassigned to the second device in the cluster such that subsequent packets with the identifier information are sent directly to the second device. A mapping table is updated to indicate that the identifier information is reassigned to the second device.
