Dynamic Rule-Ordering Optimization for High-Speed Firewall Filtering
Overview Packet filtering plays a critical role in many of the current high speed network technologies such as firewalls and IPSec devices. The optimization of firewall policies is critically important to provide high performance packet filtering particularly for high speed network security. Current packet filtering techniques exploit the characteristics of the filtering policies, but they do not consider the traffic behavior in optimizing their search data structures. This results in impractically high space complexity, which undermines the performance gain offered by these techniques. Also, these techniques offer upper bounds for the worst case search times; nevertheless, average case scenarios are not necessarily optimized.
