Summary:A network device intercepts, from an application associated with a user space, a request message associated with obtaining information regarding a network state from a kernel. The network device directs the request message to a service daemon of the user space based on intercepting the request message, and determines, using the service daemon, network state information regarding the network state. The network device intercepts, from the service daemon, a response message associated with providing the network state information to the application, and directs an altered response message to the application based on intercepting the response message such that the altered response message identifies the kernel as a source of the response message and not the service daemon as the source of the response message.
