Abstract
As network traffic is dramatically increasing due to the popularization of Internet, the need for application traffic classification becomes important for the effective use of network resources. In this paper, we present an application traffic classification method based on fixed IP-port information. A fixed IP-port is a IP, protocol, port triple dedicated to only one application, which is automatically collected from the behavior analysis of individual applications. We can classify the Internet traffic accurately and quickly by simple packet header matching to the collected fixed IP-port information. Therefore, we can construct a lightweight, fast, and accurate real-time traffic classification system than other classification method. In this paper we propose a novel algorithm to extract the fixed IP-port information and the system architecture. Also we prove the feasibility and applicability of our proposed method by an acceptable experimental result.
