Topology-Based Traffic Identification Method with Heuristic Rules
Ping Cao, Jian Zhang · Advanced materials research · 2012
Traffic identification using statistic features of traffic flows has attracted a great deal of interest. One challenging issue for these methods is that they ignore the short flows containing just 2-3 packets, for statistic features of short flows are mainly insignificant or meaningless. A topology-based method combining heuristic rules and deep-in packet inspection is proposed to identify the application types of traffic flows. The experiment results demonstrate that the method can get higher precisions and similar recalls compared to deep-in packet inspection method.
