摘要: As the Internet is quickly evolving from best-effort networks to business quality networks, billing based on precise traffic measurement becomes an important issue for service providers (ISP). Billing settlement necessary not only between ISP and customers but also ISP. Currently, most use a flat rate charging policy. Besides degree of difficulty in deriving appropriate policies agreeable by concerned party, there are substantial technical challenges come up with good usage-based accounting system. Usage-based depending IP packet header information sufficient any more due highly dynamic nature development applications such as peer-to-peer network games. They port numbers dynamically even several can same number. Thus, means classifying them their usage required. In this paper, we propose high performance, adaptable, configurable, scalable content-aware application analysis system which achieve very accurate accounting.
