Abstract

Various embodiments include systems and methods pertaining to a network sensor host configured to implement a receive side scaling (RSS) configuration component in a security environment. The RSS configuration component may be used to automatically generate an RSS configuration comprising one or more settings customized for the network sensor host based at least in part on hardware information of the network sensor host. In some embodiments, the RSS configuration may be applied to change settings of a network interface driver of the network sensor host, e.g., to implement RSS and multithreading for network sensor tasks.
