Thank you very much for your reply. 
Additionally, I want to know who splits the traffic into two parts. PF_RING or Bro worker? Is there any introduction (maybe some webpage) about this functionality?

Best,

I just want to use two bro instances (workers) running at the same physical machine. Whether PF_RING can load balance the traffic between two workers? Should I config the worker in node.cfg file as following:
