Introduction • Traditional network applications such as firewall processing require reporting only the highest-priority matching rule, which we call best-match packetclassification. • In contrast, network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) needs multi-match packet classification to find all rule headers that match a given packet. • Our work focuses on the multi-match packet header classification in NIDS.
Algorithms and Architecture - The Field-Split Bit Vector (FSBV) Algorithm • Applying the FSBV algorithm for matching the DP field of a packet against three rules.
Algorithms and Architecture - Basic Architecture
Algorithms and Architecture - Supporting Snort Features • We examined the usage of those unique features provided by Snort rules, including the value list, the negation operator, and the range operator for port fields. • The negation operator “!”. For example, ![60,80] indicates any port number except 60 and 80. • The range operator. For example, 60:80 indicates port number from 60 to 80.

Algorithms and Architecture - Supporting Snort Features • In N rules, a field of the ith rule is specified as a list of M values, the ith bit of all bit vectors for this field is expanded to M bits. N bits N+M-1 bits N+M-1 bits
Algorithms and Architecture - Supporting Snort Features • Most of port fields are specified as a single value. Over 85% of the unique values for SP/DP fields are specified as a single value, while only around 10% of port field values are specified as ranges. • Current Snort rule set uses few value lists.
