    Abstract: A method operable in a security device cluster having a plurality of security devices each configured to receive respective data flows. The method includes receiving a first segment of a flow at a first security device of the plurality of security devices, sending the first segment of the flow toward a destination node without the first security device of the plurality of security devices asserting ownership over the flow, receiving, from the destination node, a second segment of the flow at a second security device of the plurality of security devices, the second segment of the flow being responsive to the first segment, asserting, by the second security device of the plurality of security devices, ownership over the flow, and forwarding, from the first security device, packets of the flow subsequently received by the first security device to the second security device.

    Abstract: An example method for facilitating hierarchical clustering in a geographically dispersed network environment is provided and includes receiving a packet at one of a plurality of adaptive security appliance (ASA) units in one of a plurality of ASA clusters in a cluster domain of a network environment, identifying the packet as matching an inter-data center live traffic profile, identifying a target ASA cluster in the plurality of ASA clusters in the cluster domain, querying a domain director in the target ASA cluster for a flow owner, and if the flow owner is identified by the domain director, forwarding the packet to the flow owner in the target cluster, and if the flow owner is not identified by the domain director, and the domain director includes a flow state for a flow to which the packet belongs, designating the ASA unit as the flow owner.

    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.
