Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to use a signed connection identifier to route packets of network traffic. Each network host can include a network device that independently routes the packets of network traffic without sharing state information with other network devices. A network device can receive a packet of network traffic and determine if the packet of network traffic includes a signed connection identifier. If the packet does not include a signed connection identifier, the network device can perform a load balancing operation to select a network host for the packet and generate a signed connection identifier for the packet identifying the selected network host. If the packet does include a signed connection identifier, the network device can encapsulate the packet and route the packet to a particular network host based on the signed connection identifier.
