Abstract
Incoming network data is processed according to a current hardware classification “engine” configuration. As data is propagated from a network interface to a host system, an activity of one or more components of the host system is monitored. If it is determined that a desired/optimal resource utilization of the host system and/or a desired/optimal network performance is not being achieved, the hardware classification “engine” configuration is dynamically modified.
