Abstract
Technologies for redirecting traffic associated with a target entity for purposes of lawful intercept are presented herein. According to one aspect, a request to monitor data packets associated with a target entity for purposes of lawful intercept is received. Once the request is received, the target entity is added to a lawful intercept list and assigned a lawful intercept IP address from a range of lawful intercept IP addresses. Each lawful intercept IP address may have a corresponding routing policy for routing data packets associated with the corresponding lawful intercept IP address to a lawful intercept capture system. The data packet is then routed to the lawful intercept capture system based on the routing policy of the lawful intercept IP address. The lawful intercept capture system captures the data packet and forwards the data packet to a next hop network entity associated with the data packet.
