Abstract: A data and control plane architecture for network devices. An example system architecture includes a network processing unit implementing one or more data plane operations, and a network device operably coupled to the network processing unit that implements a control plane. In a particular implementation, the network processing unit is configured to process network traffic according to a data plane configuration, and sample selected packets to the network device. The network device processes the sampled packets and adjusts the data plane configuration responsive to the sampled packets.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems directed to a network traffic synchronization mechanism facilitating the deployment of network devices in redundant network topologies. In certain embodiments, when a first network device directly receives network traffic, it copies the network traffic and transmits it to at least one partner network device. The partner network device processes the copied network traffic, just as if it had received it directly, but, in one embodiment, discards the traffic before forwarding it on to its destination. In one embodiment, the partner network devices are operative to exchange directly received network traffic. As a result, the present invention provides enhanced reliability and seamless failover. Each unit, for example, is ready at any time to take over for the other unit should a failure occur. As discussed below, the network traffic synchronization mechanism can be applied to a variety of network devices, such as firewalls, gateways, network routers, and bandwidth management devices.

Abstract: A system and method for dynamically identifying internal hosts in a heterogeneous computing environment with multiple subnetworks is disclosed. A plurality of packets are analyzed. Each such packet includes a source address of an originating host and a destination address of a receiving host. An unknown originating host located at the source address of an outbound packet is classified as an inside host with high confidence. An unknown receiving host located at the destination address of an inbound packet is classified as an inside host. The unknown receiving host is reclassified as an inside host with high confidence upon receiving a further outbound packet having a source address corresponding to the address of the unknown receiving host.
