    Publication number: 20040028047
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implement techniques for processing data packets in a computer network. A packet filter engine is configured to process data packets at wire-speed based on or more user defined packet policies. A received data packet is examined to determine if there is a match between the data packet and one or more packet policies. If no matching packet policies are found, the packet is routed. If a matching packet policy is found, the data packet is processed based on the policy action fields of the matching policy.
