Abstract
Control of network traffic in a network is provided, including classifying a network request from a network source address using request classifiers selected from a plurality of request classifiers based on the network request satisfying classification conditions of the selected request classifiers, associating the network request with each classifier metric corresponding to the selected request classifiers, aggregating the classifier metrics associated with the network request to determine an aggregate request control metric of the network request, and instructing a network traffic controller to operate on the network request based on whether the aggregate request control metric satisfies a request control condition. Each of the plurality of request classifiers is associated in memory with a corresponding classifier metric.
