A method is presented for processing directional data packet traffic. A main data packet, characterized by a plurality of main data packet characteristics including at least a first IP address representing a first source, and a second IP address representing a first destination, is received at a rule processing engine. Based on the main data packet characteristics, a set of rules for processing the main data packet is retrieved. A main direction unified flow for the main data packet, and a speculative reverse direction unified flow for a reverse direction data packet are generated based on the main data packet characteristics and the retrieved set of rules. The main data packet is processed based on the main direction unified flow. Responsive to receiving the reverse direction data packet, the reverse direction data packet is processed based on the speculative reverse direction unified flow.
