A method of creating a connection between a controller and plurality of edge devices may include reading, by a data plane development kit (DPDK) of the controller, a plurality of packets having a common destination port from the plurality of edge devices, and demuxing, by the DPDK, a number of frames of the plurality of packets based on a hash of the plurality of packets, the hash altering the common destination port of the plurality of packets with a corresponding number of sham destination ports. The method may also include, with a TUNTAP interface, injecting the plurality of packets into a network kernel, and with the network kernel, delivering the plurality of packets to a respective one of a plurality of daemon instances.
