Abstract:
A network device may receive a request to install a filter associated with an application identifier or a uniform resource locator (URL), and may add, based on the request, information identifying the filter to a list of filters associated with the network device. The network device may receive a packet destined for an endpoint device, may generate a copy of the packet, and may cause the packet to be forwarded to the endpoint device. The network device may perform deep packet inspection of the copy to identify a packet application identifier or a packet URL, and may determine whether the packet application identifier or the packet URL matches the application identifier or the URL. The network device may cause the copy of the packet to be forwarded to a content destination device when the packet application identifier or the packet URL matches the application identifier or the URL.
