ADC Feature Changes
as of May 31, 2013
This section
provides information on ADC feature changes in release 14.0.
IMPORTANT:
For more information
regarding features in this section, refer to the Application Detection
and Control Administration Guide for this release.
New ADC Features
This section
identifies new ADC features available in release 14.0.
Support for ADC
Protocol Group Detection and Extended Sub-classification
Application Detection
and Control (ADC) performs traffic analysis and classifies flows
into applications and its traffic type. To provide a high-level
classification, the protocol grouping feature is implemented to
support various application/protocol groups like gaming,
file-sharing, e-mail, communicator, etc. Protocol Grouping is done
based on the functionality provided by the application. For example,
applications like Skype and Yahoo are used for VoIP, so these applications
are grouped as Communicator group. The feature is implemented based
on the Dynamic Software Upgrade plugin philosophy. CLI support is
added for this feature.
Extended sub-classification:
Traffic type that is used for sub-classification can now support
File Transfer and Instant Messaging.
Support for Behavioral
P2P and VoIP
Behavioral Traffic Analysis
is a method to analyze network traffic such that all the traffic
is analyzed by the generic behavior of each flow. ADC supports behavioral
traffic analysis for P2P (Peer-to-Peer) and VoIP (Voice over IP).
If the generic behavior of protocols is detected and traffic classified
correctly using behavioral analysis, lesser amount of unknown traffic
flows can be seen. This feature is based on the Dynamic Software
Upgrade plugin philosophy. CLI support is added to enable or disable
this feature.
Behavioral P2P and behavioral VoIP are meant
for zero day detection of P2P/file sharing protocols and
VoIP traffic respectively. This feature is disabled by default and
meant only for statistical purposes (not for charging purposes).
Support for SSL
Renegotiation Tracking
SSL Renegotiation flows
can be detected by tracking the SSL Session ID and its associated protocol.
This feature is disabled by default. The maximum entries of SSL
Session ID tracked per Session Manager and the reduce factor can
be configured. CLI support is added to enable or disable this feature.
Certain
applications like Facebook, Gmail, Yahoo, Skype, Twitter, iCloud,
etc. widely use the SSL Session Renegotiation feature in their mobile
applications to reduce the computational intensive operations involved
in a complete SSL negotiation.
Limitations: In certain
cases, the SSL Renegotiation detection logic does not work if the
SSL sessions involved in the negotiation is spread across more than
one subscriber session.
Support for Analyzer
Interworking
Analyzer interworking
feature is implemented to analyze the various analyzers simultaneously
if the flow is detected as P2P and based on ruledef priority, appropriate
charging action will be taken. Currently supported analyzers are
FTP, HTTP, RTSP and SIP. CLI support is added to enable or disable
this feature. This feature is enabled by default if P2P detection/protocol is
enabled.

New ADC Features
This section
identifies new ADC features available in release 14.0.
Limitations for
ADC Protocols
Limitations for certain
protocols that support audio or video sub-classification are added
in this release.
If Audio and Video
contents are in the same flow (TCP/UDP), video is considered
as the predominant component and the flow is marked as “video”.
In this scenario, throttling video will block both audio and video.
Throttling only audio or video is not possible.
Modified ADC Features
This section
identifies ADC features modified in release 14.0. There are two
kinds of modified features: enhancements and behavior changes. Enhancements
are feature changes based on customer change requests. Behavior
changes are feature changes that modify an existing behavior and
may result from software error corrections (bug fixes).

changes are feature changes that modify an existing behavior and

Working of ADC Behavior
Change
Omitted Content: This
change occurred in the September 28, 2012 code drop but was omitted
from this document until now.
Previous Behavior:
As part of traffic analysis, packets will be first passed through
the ADC analyzer when “p2p dynamic-flow-detection” is
enabled. If it is not detected as P2P by the ADC analyzer, then
it will follow the appropriate ECS analyzer if configured and regular
ECS processing as per configuration.
New Behavior: In
the new implementation, packets will be sent to non-ADC analyzers
even after marking the flow as P2P for specific protocols. If the
flow is marked as P2P and also analyzed by other analyzers, the
statistics for display and debug purposes reflect in both analyzers.
The EDR also displays the ADC application/protocol names
if configured.

Dynamic Software
Upgrade
Dynamic Software Upgrade
is the new approach to upgrade the ADC library version that will
enable operators to upgrade their detection capabilities with no
downtime. This is done by providing updates in the form of software
patches, which the operator can apply in a live setup with minimal
interference.
In this approach, ADC
is now delivered as a plugin within the StarOS binary. The plugin
is loaded into the system at run time. Whenever there is a change
in the detection logic of an existing application or a new ADC protocol/application
needs to be added, a new version of the plugin is provided as a
plugin module. The new plugin is loaded onto the system dynamically
without disrupting other services. After the plugin has been installed
and configured, the new rules will come into effect for detection.
IMPORTANT:
Dynamically loaded plugins
are not incremental. A plugin includes protocol detection logic for
all the protocols/applications. You can update to a higher
priority plugin or rollback to a lower priority plugin.
The basic sequence for
the dynamic software upgrade process is as follows:
-
Downloading the Patch
kit
-
-
-
-
Rolling Back to a Previous
Plugin Version
For the new CLI and
show commands supported for DSU, refer to the New ADC Configuration
Commands and New
ADC Performance Commands sections in this reference. For additional
information, refer to the Application
Detection and Control Administration Guide.
P2P Protocols Detection
Support
This release now supports
the detection of the following P2P protocols:

New ADC Bulk Statistics
This section
identifies new ADC bulk statistics available in release 14.0.
IMPORTANT:
In StarOS 14.0, the
P2P Schema is new. If detection of a specific P2P protocol is enabled,
bulk statistics for that protocol will be automatically generated
using the Dynamic Software Upgrade plugin installed on the chassis.
In the case of protocols that support sub-classification (audio/video/unclassified),
the bulk statistics will be generated for each of the supported
sub-classifications per protocol and also the corresponding cumulative
count.
The following bulk
statistics are new in this release:
P2P Schema
- p2p-duration-name
- p2p-duration-value
- p2p-uplnk-bytes-name
- p2p-uplnk-bytes-value
- p2p-dwlnk-bytes-name
