An Improved GIDS Packet Classification Algorithm Using the Characteristic of the Traffic
A classification algorithm FlowCopySearch (FCS) is developed that systematically profiles static intrusion signatures and network traffic to generate a high performance and memory-efficient packet classification tree.The improvements are two folds.Firstly
the best classification tree is formally defined and packet feature entropy is proposed to measure how well a packet field can partition the traffic.Secondly
FCS copies a rule set for a flow instead of traditionally copying the rule set for every packet in the flow
so the classifying speed is increased considerably.The experiment results show that in backbone trace FCS is preferred.Compared to the other two classical algorithms
FCS can not only speed up classification by as much as 10.1%~45.1% in speed
but also save memory consumption of 11.1%~36.6% at the same time.
