Abstract:
A rule indicates that data having particular characteristics be automatically routed to a particular destination. When software on a switching device detects a new data stream, it is analyzed to determine whether it has characteristics specified by the rule. If it does, the packet is encapsulated with a special tag, indicating that the packet should be routed to the new destination. Also, an entry is added to a quick-lookup table in the switching device. The entry indicates that future packets in the data stream that have the same source and destination port and address should also be routed to the new destination.

Claim (Index 1):
An access switch device, comprising:\n a forwarding table that maps groups of destination addresses to respective outputs of the access switch device; a quick lookup table that stores a plurality of entries, each entry of the plurality of entries having a corresponding data stream; a flow matching module configured to:\n determine that a packet received at the access switch device corresponds to a data stream that has a corresponding entry in the quick lookup table, wherein the entry includes a label associated with the data stream; \n in response to determining that the data stream corresponding to the packet has a corresponding entry in the quick lookup table, affix the label to the packet; and \n forward the packet to an output port of the access switch device, the output port selected based on the label; and \n a redirect module configured to: \n in response to the flow matching module determining that a second packet corresponds to a second data stream that does not have a corresponding entry in the quick lookup table, send the second packet to a flow vector server.
