DETERMINING TRACEABILITY OF NETWORK TRAFFIC OVER A COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK

摘要

System and method for determining traceability of network request traffic over a communications network for reducing strain in traffic processing resources, which includes: provisioning a direct interconnect on the communications network between the server and a predefined source, the direct interconnect providing a private service interface, a defined pairings data of the predefined source with the direct interconnect stored in a storage as a network traffic almanac; provisioning a public service interface on the communications network; receiving a request traffic having an address of the predefined source via the public service interface; consulting the defined paring data with the address to determine if the request traffic matches the predefined source; and de-prioritizing processing of the request traffic based on the request traffic being received on the public service interface rather than the direct interconnect, by dynamically applying a prioritize criterion to the second request traffic before generating a response traffic.
