Abstract:

This paper puts forward a method of P2P traffic identification based on SVM. Using the doublevalue classification and the essential characteristics of SVM, we classify the data packages of the Internet into the P2P class and the nonP2P class; using the method's ability to classify multiple category problems, we further denote the P2P stream as a specified protocol.The experimental results show that the method has a high identification rate,which shows the effectiveness of using the SVM technology in the identification of the P2P traffic.

Key words: SVM;P2P;traffic identification
