Abstract

A network device is configured to receive network traffic associated with an application executing on a user device; identify, based on the network traffic, an application identifier associated with the application; determine whether the application identifier matches one of a set of application identifiers stored by the network device; identify a policy based on the application identifier when the application identifier matches one of the set of application identifiers; and apply the policy to the network traffic associated with the application. The policy may be obtained from another network device, in communication with the network device, when the application identifier does not match one of the set of application identifiers.
