Consistent Hashing of UDP packet based on first x bytes of UDP data

[bkannadassan]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In case of udp packet we want to take a certain data offset and use that to hash for upstream. Since we see all request coming from same 5 tuple.

Describe the solution you'd like
In stream read x bytes and set that in a variable and use that as the consistent hash key

Describe alternatives you've considered
I am going through lua not sure but looks like can be done by doing a udp::receive of first few bytes..

Hi @bkannadassan thanks for reporting!

Be sure to check out the docs while you wait for a human to take a look at this 🙂

Cheers!

hash ${data_offset}[1:4] consistent;
Something like above in the udp would help a lot..
