Abstract
A network device is configured in receive regular packets and redundancy protocol packets via network interfaces of the network device. The network device includes a dual lookup and duplicate discard engine configured to, using one or more shared resources, selectively perform different lookup operations for a packet based on whether the packet is a regular packet or a redundancy protocol packet. The dual lookup and duplicate discard engine is configured to, in response to determining that a packet is a regular packet, perform at least one lookup operation to determine one or more network interfaces via which the packet is to be transmitted by the network device and, in response to determining that a packet is a redundancy protocol packet, perform at least one lookup operation to determine whether the packet is a first instance packet or a duplicate packet that is to be discarded by the network device.
