Abstract
A mirrored live-data flow of the live-data flow passing through a selected point within a network is monitored at a first processing node. The live-data flow comprises data that is in active transmission between endpoints in the network and prior to exit from the network and onward storage of the data in a database. Each packet within the mirrored data flow is decoded at the first processing node according to each protocol associated with a packet. Packets having a plurality of protocols associated therewith are decoded in parallel with each other. Each of the decoded packets are compared at the first processing node to a set of predetermined or deduced conditions. A predetermined or deduced response is executed based upon detection of a predetermined or deduced condition within the decoded packets. At least a portion of the decoded packets of the live-data flow causing execution of the predetermined or deduced response are processed at a second processing node to determine a manner for controlling an operation of the network at a same time the live-data flow is in active transmission between the endpoints in the network. The operation of the network is controlled in response to the processing step.
