Summary:
In this paper, there is presented a project realized on NetFPGA cards for load balancing in IP networks. In many cases, it is hard to serve whole stream of incoming packets in one device with satisfactory deep analysis. This system allows to split high throughput stream of packets into several ones with smaller throughput. Each of them can be served by dedicated device with smaller requirement on performance. The presented project can also filter Internet traffic and extract only packets with interesting features. System has been realized and tested with cards with 1Gbps interfaces, it can be easily ported into cards with the speed of 10Gbps.
