Building a more and more intelligent network has been a long-term goal. But what does ‘intelligent’ mean? As a term, it is easily misinterpreted and seen as a fuzzy notion. Opposed to a ‘dumb’ network on which packets are transported to their destinations without any questions, an intelligent network has the ability to monitor network behaviour along with end-user experience. It is the in-depth data made available by Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) that makes the network more intelligent, thus adding some smarts into a network infrastructure. |
