ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods are disclosed for processing data packets. Such a system may generate a header for a session and repeatedly use that header to generate packets for the session. Packets may be processed by a host processor and an associated security processor. When the security processor generates packets for the session it may prepend a header from the host processor onto packets, rather than independently generate the header.
