Abstract

Embodiments are directed towards managing communication over a network assist application classification using predicted subscriber behavior. Subscriber information associated with a network flow may be determined. Prediction information that includes application identifiers may be generated based on the subscriber information. A classification engine may determine the applications associated with the network flow based on the prediction information and the network flow using a plurality of application classifiers that correspond to the applications. If an application identifier included in the prediction information is correspondent to an application classifier, the application may be determined based on the correspondent application classifier; otherwise the application is determined based on the remainder of the application classifiers. A policy for managing the network flow may be determined based on the determined application. Then the network traffic associated with the network flow may be communicated based on the at least one determined policy.
