Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus employing an efficient buffering scheme for analyzing the Layer 7 content in packet data sent from a first node to a second node within a computer network. The apparatus includes a first device having a buffer and one or more first processors. The apparatus also includes a second device having one or more second processors. The first device is a physically separate device from the second device. The second processor of the second device is configured to manage the buffer of the first device, and the first processor is also configured to analyze packet data accessed from the buffer.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method to facilitate installation and/or removal of components in which one of the components is a shared component. The components are installed based on a valid order, such that shared components are installed after other components have been installed. According to one aspect, one or more properties associated with a shared component may be manipulated to facilitate installation and/or removal of components, including the shared component and dependent components.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus which facilitate the handling of data between platforms interconnected by any of a variety of network environments are disclosed. In general terms, the present invention represents an improvement over conventional packet parsing and searching mechanisms. The parse mechanism sequentially analyzes each character of the packet data and passes relevant characters to the search mechanism as soon as each character is reached. Preferably, the characters of each data field are parsed character-by-character. In one implementation, prior to searching a relevant data field, the parser initializes the appropriate search mechanism based on at least the data field type (e.g., the cookie field or URL field of an HTTP request). Each character of the relevant data is then passed sequentially to the search mechanism, where a search state are obtained for each passed character. Accordingly, the parser passes each character of the relevant data fields to the search mechanism. Since the parser passes the well-defined fields of standard protocols, such as HTTP and FTP, parsing may be efficiently performed without referencing memory (e.g., parsing is implemented in micro-code). When the parser reaches the end of the relevant data field, the parser may then cause the search mechanism to output search results associated with the search state of the last searched character. Alternatively, the parser may initiate another search for another data field, which is subsequently parsed and searched character-by-character as recited above for the first field.

Abstract: A method and system for installing software on a computer generates an installation order that ensures that a component required for the functioning of another component is already installed. Furthermore, it makes possible generating good installation orders to allow related components, e.g., in a software suite, to be installed close together, thus reducing disk swapping. The method and system take into account the existing configuration on a computer and allow removal of components along with dynamic reconfiguration of a computing system in response to a user's choice of an application program to launch. In accordance with the invention, preferably a developer includes information about the component's relationship with other components, e.g., a specific requirement for a preinstalled component or a requirement that a particular component not be present, thus requiring its removal. To remove the possibility of a single identifier referring to more than one component, the preferred embodiments of the invention use globally unique identifiers to label individual components.
