Patent Classification: ["709", "224000"]

Abstract:
Methods and systems for analyzing flows of communication packets. A front-end processor associates input packets with flows and forwards each flow to the appropriate unit, typically by querying a flow table that holds a respective classification for each active flow. In general, flows that are not yet classified are forwarded to the classification unit, and the resulting classification is entered in the flow table. Flows that are classified as requested for further analysis are forwarded to an appropriate flow analysis unit. Flows that are classified as not requested for analysis are not subjected to further processing, e.g., discarded or allowed to pass.

Claim (Index 1):
A system, comprising:\n multiple flow analysis units, which are configured to analyze flows of communication packets; at least one classification unit, which is configured to accept one or more of the communication packets in a flow and to classify the flow so as to determine whether the flow is to be analyzed by the flow analysis units; and a front-end processor, which is configured to receive input packets from a communication network, to associate each input packet with a respective input flow, to forward at least one input flow to the classification unit for classification, and to forward one or more input flows, which were classified by the classification unit as requested for analysis, to the flow analysis units.
