Research on Signature Maintenance Method for Internet Application Traffic Identification using Header Signatures
Sung‐Ho Yoon, Myung‐Sup Kim · Journal of Internet Computing and services · 2011
The need for application traffic classification becomes important for the effective use of network resources. The header-based identification method uses the header signature {IP address, port number, transport layer protocol TCP/UDP)}extracted from Internet application server to overcome some limitations overhead, payload encryption, etc.) of previous methods. A lots signature is extracted because this method uses header information of server. So, we need a maintenance method to keep essential signatures. In this paper, we represent the signature maintenance method using properties of identified traffic and history of the signature. Also, we prove the feasibility and applicability of our proposed method by an acceptable experimental result.
