Integrated Packet Classification to Support Multiple Security Policies for Robust and Low Delay V2X Services

الملخص EN

One of the key applications in the 5G system is Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X).

Ultra-low delay communication is essential for the safety of users and pedestrians in V2X.

However, as sophisticated and various cyberattacks are increasing, it becomes hard to satisfy low delay constraints.

To protect networks from such attacks, even single network security equipment provides multiple security functions, resulting in the inevitable additive delay in packet processing.

In this paper, we suggest a new packet classification paradigm to resolve this issue.

The proposed algorithm integrates multiple policy rule-sets into a single rule-set and classifies incoming packets using the integrated rule-set.

Thus, it has a unique feature providing high classification performance regardless of the number of security policies.

Through extensive performance evaluations, we confirm that the performance improvement is also increased with the total rule-set number increasing without the significant overhead of memory cost.

We expect that it will mitigate the delay issue of existing network equipment for upcoming services such as V2X.
