Packets that do not meet security policies are not allowed to leave – they are denied "egress". [1] Egress filtering helps ensure that unauthorized or malicious traffic never leaves the internal network. In a corporate network, typical recommendations are that all traffic except that emerging from a select set of servers would be denied egress.
Accordingly, one of the most crucial functions performed by the Internet is the routing of traffic ingress nodes to egress nodes. Ultimately, it is the performance of the network as seen by network services that is truly paramount. This crucial function should be considered throughout the development of engineering mechanisms and policies.
Network ingress filtering is a packet filtering technique used by many Internet service providers to try to prevent IP address spoofing of Internet traffic, and thus indirectly combat various types of net abuse by making Internet traffic traceable to its source. Network ingress filtering makes it much easier to track denial-of-service attacks ...
In computer networking, network traffic control is the process of managing, controlling or reducing the network traffic, particularly Internet bandwidth, e.g. by the network scheduler. [1] It is used by network administrators, to reduce congestion, latency and packet loss. This is part of bandwidth management.
For tight control over volumes and type of traffic in a given class, a network operator may choose not to honor markings at the ingress to the DiffServ domain. Traffic in each class may be further conditioned by subjecting the traffic to rate limiters, traffic policers or shapers. [6]: §3
An egress router may be an ingress router or an intermediate router for any other LSP(s). Hence the role of egress and ingress routers is LSP specific. Usually, the MPLS label is attached with an IP packet at the ingress router and removed at the egress router, whereas label swapping is performed on the intermediate routers.
802.1X-2001 defines two logical port entities for an authenticated port—the "controlled port" and the "uncontrolled port". The controlled port is manipulated by the 802.1X PAE (Port Access Entity) to allow (in the authorized state) or prevent (in the unauthorized state) network traffic ingress and egress to/from the controlled port.
Network traffic measurement - measuring the amount and type of traffic on a particular network; Network traffic simulation - to measure the efficiency of a communications network; Traffic generation model - is a stochastic model of the traffic flows or data sources in a communication computer network. Proper analysis of network traffic provides ...
