ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for receiving a sequence of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) segments, including a parsing machine which is adapted to parse at least one TCP segment so as to recover an Internet Small Computer Systems Interface Protocol Data Unit (iSCSI PDU), the PDU including a header and at least part of a payload. The apparatus further includes at least one analysis machine which is adapted to receive and evaluate the header and to receive and route the at least part of the payload for the iSCSI PDU, the parsing machine and the at least one analysis machine operating substantially autonomously.
