Abstract:
A device may comprise security processing units (SPUs) including a SPU to receive a session request. The SPU may identify global counter information and update counter information. The global counter information may include a global counter identifier and a global counter value. The update counter information may include an update counter identifier and an update counter value. The SPU may identify a global limit associated with the global counter, may determine that the global limit has not been met, and may cause the session to be created. The SPU may create a modified global counter value. The SPU may create a modified update counter value. The SPU may determine that a local update message is required based on the modified update counter value, and may provide the local update message to another SPU. The local update message may include the global counter identifier and the modified global counter value.
