Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for finding a captured data packet including a data pattern of interest and data packets associated with the found data packet are herein provided. A traffic flow of captured data packets may be received by a network captured traffic distribution device and may be duplicated. A traffic flow of captured data packets may be scanned for data packets including a data pattern of interest and identifying information may be determined for any found data packets. A duplicate traffic flow of captured data packets may also be scanned for data packets with identifying information that matches a found data packet. An egress port for the found data packet may be determined and both the found data packet and any data packets with identifying information matching found data packet might be transmitted to the determined egress port.
