Introduction Evolving network technologies, new web
services and changing usage patterns continuously change traffic characteristics. But a thorough understanding of the traffic is the basis for many applications in networking.

Scalability of I2MP Throughput of Hardware unit
1. Increase clock rate
2. Increase number of bytes processed in each clock rate
• Increase internal word width
• Replicate the entire system or those parts of limit the overall throughput
3. Process the first part of each packet
Classification criteria and rulesIncreasing those parameters does not deteriorate the system’s throughput.
