Abstract

Current methods of server name indication (SNI) detection rely on manual traffic analysis to determine which SNIs should be added to a list of SNIs in Application Detection and Control (ADC) peer-to-peer (P2P) modules, which may lead to errors when determining which traffic should be shaped for optimization. Techniques described herein provide for a robust and quantifiable method of determining which SNI traffic flows should be shaped or optimized in a Service Provider’s mobile packet core. Techniques discussed herein reduce the time to identify flows requiring actions and make the process of identifying the flows more quantifiable with live unknown traffic monitoring.
