摘要:
A network system includes a security device and a network access device. The network access device is to receive a packet from a source node destined to a destination node, and to examine a data structure maintained by the network access device to determine whether the data structure stores a data member having a predetermined value, the data member indicating whether the packet should undergo security processing. If the data member matches the predetermined value, the packet is transmitted to a security device associated with the network access device to allow the security device to perform content inspection, and in response to a response received from the security device, the packet is routed to the destination node dependent upon the response. The packet is routed to the destination node without forwarding the packet to the security device.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for dynamic security insertion into virtualized networks is described. The method may include receiving, at a network device from a second network device, a data packet and application data extracted from the data packet. The method may also include generating a routing decision for a network connection associated with the data packet based, at least in part, on the application data. Furthermore, the method may include transmitting the routing decision for the data packet to the second device for the second device to route the data based on the routing decision.

摘要:
A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for using a virtual security boundary. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving information from a virtual machine after the virtual machine has been moved from a first physical location in a network to a second physical location in the network, where the information identifies the virtual machine as one previously assigned to a security boundary; determining that access to the virtual machine at the first physical location was permitted by the security gateway; assigning the virtual machine at the second physical location to the security boundary, and applying a security policy associated with the security boundary to communications between the network and the virtual machine at the second physical location.
