Abstract

See full text

In one example, a processor may receive network traffic from a demultiplexer via a first network interface card and place portions of the network traffic into a plurality of hash buckets. The processor may further process a first portion of the portions of the network traffic in at least a first hash bucket of the plurality of hash buckets and forward a second portion of the portions of the network traffic in at least a second hash bucket of the plurality of hash buckets to a switch via a second network interface card. In one example, the switch distributes the second portion of the network traffic to one of a plurality of overflow probes. In one example, the plurality of overflow probes comprises a network function virtualization infrastructure for processing the second portion of the network traffic.
