Abstract:
Identification and treatment of application flows are important to
many application providers and network operators. They often rely on
these capabilities to deploy and/or support a wide range of
applications. These applications generate flows that may have
specific connectivity requirements that can be met if made known to
the network. Historically, this functionality has been implemented
to the extent possible using heuristics, which inspect and infer flow
characteristics. Heuristics may be based on port ranges, network
separation (e.g. subnets or VLANs, Deep Flow Inspection (DFI), or
Deep Packet Inspection (DPI). But many application flows in current
usages are dynamic, adaptive, time-bound, encrypted, peer-to-peer,
asymmetric, used on multipurpose devices, and have different
priorities depending on direction of flow, user preferences, and
other factors. Any combination of these properties renders heuristic
based techniques less effective and may result in compromises to
application security or user privacy.
