A secure bus for pre-placement of device capabilities across a set of cryptoprocessors may be provided. A first cryptoprocessor may receive a key corresponding to a second cryptoprocessor and it may receive an object in response to the object being instantiated on the second cryptoprocessor. Next, the first cryptoprocessor may use the key to determine that the second cryptoprocessor signed the object. The first cryptoprocessor may then store the object in the first cryptoprocessor in response to determining that the second cryptoprocessor signed the object. Then the first cryptoprocessor may receive a request for the object and provide a response to the request.

Techniques are provided for implementing clustering services in a virtual data center or other virtualized infrastructure in a manner that allows packets to be directed to a particular service engine of a service engine cluster.

Directing data flows in data centers with clustering services

A system, computer-readable media, and methods for network resource sharing of routing and forwarding information are disclosed. The method may include receiving a first address for a device connected to a network and receiving one or more second addresses for the device. The method may also include identifying a first switch through which the device connects to the network and identifying a second switch for storing the first address and the one or more second addresses. Further, the method may include storing the first address in the first switch and storing the first address and the one or more second addresses in the second switch.

Network resource sharing for routing and forwarding information

Various systems and methods that allow multiple aggregation protocol sessions to be established in a daisy chain network are disclosed. One method involves sending a first aggregation protocol packet and a first session identifier associated therewith to a first network device via a first interface and sending a second aggregation protocol packet and a second session identifier associated therewith to a second network device via the first interface.
