Abstract
Network devices, systems, and methods are provided for packet processing. One method includes receiving a checking functionality rule set as an input to a distribution algorithm. The method includes bifurcating and providing configuration instructions, as an output from the distribution algorithm, to a first logic plane associated with a first logical entity and a second logic plane associated with a second logical entity. A collaboration algorithm is used to provide processing coordination between the first logical entity and the second logical entity.
