DATA PLANE PACKET PROCESSING TOOL CHAIN

摘要

This present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing a data plane processing tool chain for processing packets that can use OSI layers 4 and above in the data plane without using a hypervisor. The disclosure has multiple processing capabilities, including: packet filtering, resolving DNS packets, generating packets, packet forwarding, performing DNS look up, time-stamping DNS packets, writing packets to disk, load-balancing, and protecting against DDOS attacks.

主权项

1. A method, comprising:
reading, using a poll mode driver, a first Domain Name System (DNS) packet from a first queue of a network interface card; sending, using the poll mode driver, the first DNS packet to a data plane; processing the first DNS packet in the data plane; generating, in the data plane, a second DNS packet in response to processing the first DNS packet; and sending, using the poll mode driver, the second DNS packet from the data plane to a second queue of the network interface card.
