Abstract
Methods and systems for load balancing are disclosed. An example method for load balancing commences with receiving a data packet from a host device. The method further includes identifying a header field of the data packet. After identifying the header field of the data packet, the method proceeds with matching the data packet to a network service based on the header field. Thereafter, the method generates a header field block for the data packet based on the network service. The method further includes sending the data packet to a processor module. The data packet is processed based on the header field block.
