Abstract

A network device may include multiple interfaces, each including a local database to store, in a first group of local records, information associated with a first group of data units sent from or received by a first one of the group of interfaces; a global database to store, in a group of global records, information associated with the first group of data units and information associated with a second group of data units sent from or received by a second one of said group of interfaces. The device may include a processor, to manage the local database and the global database; broadcast at least one of the local records to the second one of the group of interfaces; and analyze each of the local records to identify potential anomalies in the first group of data units.
