Abstract:
A wireless access point comprises a memory; and one or more processors operably coupled to the memory configured to: receive a first packet for an application; configure an initial packet flow for the application including a first forwarding action to send traffic for the application via a tunnel path; learn the application of the first packet; generate, based on a policy of the application, an entry in an application server address cache specifying an address of the application server and a second forwarding action to send traffic for the application via a local breakout path; receive a second packet for the application; and configure, in response to determining that a destination address of the second packet matches the entry in the application server address cache, a subsequent packet flow for the application including the second forwarding action to send traffic for the application via the local breakout path.
