Abstract

A method for transmitting packets in a network is provided. The method includes determining that a first packet will be encrypted prior to transmitting the first packet to a network device. The first packet includes a first source address for the first packet. The method also includes generating a routing value based on the first source address. The routing value allows the network device to determine which of a plurality of processing cores will be used to process the first packet. The method further includes encrypting the first packet to generate an encrypted first packet. The method further includes encapsulating the encrypted first packet within a second packet. A payload of the second packet comprises the encrypted first packet and a packet header of the second packet includes the routing value. The method further includes transmitting the second packet to the network device.
