When classifying network traffic, a key challenge is deciding when to perform the
classification, ie, after how many packets. Too early, and the decision basis is too thin to …

Packet classification is an important part of many networking devices, such as routers and
firewalls. Software-defined networking (SDN) heavily relies on online packet classification …

Ternary content addressable memories (TCAMs) are frequently used for fast matching of
packets against a given ruleset. While TCAMs can achieve fast matching, they are plagued …

Packet classification is a building block in many network services, such as routing,
monitoring, and policy enforcement. In commodity switches, classification is often performed …

Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) is widely used by modern routers and
switches to support policy-based forwarding. However, the limited TCAM capacity does not …

We present RENE---a novel encoding scheme for short ranges on Ternary content
addressable memory (TCAM), which, unlike previous solutions, does not impose row …

OpenFlow switches are being deployed in SDN to enable a wide spectrum of non-traditional
applications. As a promising alternative to brutal force TCAMs, FPGA-based packet …

Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) is widely used by modern routers and
switches to support policy-based forwarding due to its incomparable lookup speed and …

Packet classification, as a crucial function of networks, has been extensively investigated. In
recent years, the rapid advancement of software-defined networking (SDN) has introduced …

Packet classification is a building block in many network services such as routing, filtering,
intrusion detection, accounting, monitoring, load-balancing and policy enforcement …
