Abstract
Methods and apparatus to assign and check anti-replay sequence numbers. In one embodiment, a method includes assigning, by circuitry, sequence numbers to packets of traffic flows, wherein a first sequence number is assigned to a first packet based on a determination that the first packet is within a first traffic flow mapped to a first secure channel, and wherein the first sequence number is within a set of sequence numbers allocated to the first secure channel and maintained by the circuitry. The method continues with allocating the packets of traffic flows to be processed among a plurality of processor cores and processing the packets of traffic flows by the plurality of processor cores.
