Single pass parallel processing

L2 Linker

 

Hello, I don't understand why it is said that the single pass parallel processing performs operations once per packet.
What does this mean?

Firstly, the single-pass software performs operations once per package.

Thanks

@Sarou22 Yes it processes all the inspections in parallel other than waiting for one inspection to finish and start the second inspection.

Either of these will go over the benefits and how this actually functions.

 

Hello,

After Reading the documents, I still don't understand why WE Say thay the single pass software performs operations once per packet.  "As a packet is processed, networking functions, policy lookup, application identification and decoding, and signature matching for any and all threats and content are all performed just once. "

 

This means, for example, that for a package we'll check whether it matches a policy and at the same time decode the application?

 

Why do we only need to do this once?

@Sarou22 Yes it processes all the inspections in parallel other than waiting for one inspection to finish and start the second inspection.
