Improving Distributed Firewalls Performance Through Vertical Load Balancing
Overview This paper presents an extension to an existing hash based packet classification technique in order to improve its performance in a distributed network access control environment. The paper shows that such architecture can be modified so that flow states can be kept in a distributed fashion thus reducing the space needed for packet filtering in each component of the architecture. The paper also shows how such approach can, in some cases, improve the overall time complexity of packet filtering operations by reducing the number of packet classification operations.
