Abstract: A hardware network accelerator comprises a plurality of Ethernet communication interfaces, a plurality of memories, and a further memory. Each memory stores records comprising destination IP data identifying a destination IP address range. The further memory stores further records, wherein each record comprises next-hop data indicating a next-hop IP address, next-hop enable data, and network port data indicating an Ethernet communication interface. Each Ethernet communication interface is configured to obtain an IP packet, access in parallel the memories in order to read the records, select a record having a destination IP address range containing the destination IP address of the IP packet, read the further record associated with the selected record from the further memory, and select the indicated Ethernet communication interface. The selected Ethernet communication interface is configured to transmit an Ethernet frame comprising the IP packet based on the next-hop enable data and next-hop data.

Abstract: Techniques for load balancing secure network traffic are disclosed. A system, process, and/or computer program product for load balancing secure network traffic includes monitoring network traffic for one branch of a plurality of branches for an enterprise network, and splitting the network traffic of the one branch into a plurality of network segments based on a determination that the network traffic exceeds traffic capacity of at least one security processing node (SPN) of a plurality of SPNs using a network load balancer (NLB) in communication with a plurality of Network Processing Nodes (NPNs), the plurality of monitored branches being distributed to the plurality of SPNs via a plurality of tunnels.
