Abstract
Techniques are provided for processing of failure detection protocol (FDP) packets. Techniques are provided that assist a CPU of a network device in processing incoming FDP packets. The task of transmitting FDP packets from a network device is offloaded from the CPU of the network device and instead handled by another module of the network device. In this manner, the processing that the CPU of the network device has to perform for transmitting FDP packets for the various FDP sessions of the network device is reduced. This enables the network device to support newer FDPs with shorter periodic interval requirements.
