Abstract
A network sensor that features a data store and a packet processing engine. In communication with the data store, the packet processing engine comprises (1) a cache management logic and (2) deduplication logic. The cache management logic is configured to analyze packets to determine whether (a) a packet under analysis include duplicated data and (b) content of the packet is targeted for storage in a same continuous logical storage area as the duplicated data. The deduplication logic, when activated by the cache management logic, is configured to generate a deduplication reference for insertion into the packet prior to storage.
