Abstract

See full text

This document describes tools that assign packets to a network service. The tools receive a control packet lacking a tag associating the control packet with a network service and assign the control packet to a network service by adding a tag to the control packet. The tools may also receive a tagged data packet on a port and determine that the tag does not match any of a set of network tags associated with the port. Consequently, the tools assign the data packet to a default network service. The tools may also receive a set of conditions for a port and assign data packets received on the port that satisfy one of the conditions to a network service associated with the satisfied condition and data packets that do not satisfy one of the conditions to a default network service.
