Abstract
A packet is received at an ingress port of a networking device and a forwarding result that identifies an egress port for the packet is generated. In parallel with the generation of the forwarding result, a network address translation (NAT) result that identifies one or more NAT rules for possible application to the packet is generated. The forwarding result and the NAT result are then used to generate a routing decision result.
