Abstract :
Deep packet inspection or DPI is now a fast growing application technology in the field of network security, which requires the network security platform has a higher speed to handle a large number of session connections, and track the status of these connections quickly. This paper proposed the MP-DPI, a many-core based network processing platform, which uses the ATCA standard modular design, makes use of the integrated many-core network process accelerate engine, and integrates a popular open source DPI system named SNORT. The experiment result shows that in the same power consumption, the throughput of MP-DPI platform is three times as large as traditional X86 servers.
