A Method for P2P Detection and Control at High Speed

For the purpose of peer-to-peer(P2P) detection and control,a model named P2P traffic control model(PM) was presented,with the model P2P packets can be identified accurately by signature matching and the P2P traffic can be controlled by discarding P2P packets randomly.In addition,PM can detect the traffic at gigabits rate through ternary content addressable memory.With different network's workloads,the simulations based on OPNET platform have been done and show that PM can control the P2P traffic effectively and improve the quality of service(QoS) of non-P2P applications.
