I understand what you’re saying … yes, people (like myself)

But many times when a vendor brings in something major and new, it
often causes problems with code on routers/switches that has
worked perfectly fine for a long time.  To bring DPI into any

I had/have that concern as well. But it is mind boggling to me
that so many people are complaining about ubiquiti putting in this

many complaints about features being added. Shouldn't we instead

Complaining about ubiquiti adding in DPI, even if it sucked, is

I understand what you’re saying … yes, people (like myself) 
complaining about something free … totally understand that part.


But many times when a vendor brings in something major and new, it 
often causes problems with code on routers/switches that has worked 
perfectly fine for a long time.  To bring DPI into any router involves 
a significant amount of codebase change very low on the IP stack .. a 
lot can go wrong…

I had/have that concern as well. But it is mind boggling to me that so 
many people are complaining about ubiquiti putting in this value added 
feature (quite well I may add). I have never seen so many complaints 
about features being added. Shouldn't we instead complain about the 
needed features their products are missing?


Complaining about ubiquiti adding in DPI, even if it sucked, is like 
complaining that you get a dozen free games when you buy an XBox One. 
You may not like the games you get, but they are free and you don't 
have to play them if you don't want.

I don't know why anyone would have a problem with them putting
this on existing routers. If you don't like their routers, don't
buy them. If you do like their routers but think a feature
shouldn't be there, don't enable it.

I think it's great that ubiquiti innovates the way they do. They
have some great products that blow other products out of the water
in one way or another. And it's forced other companies to lower
their seriously over priced equipment and to rethink their
strategies. Ubiquiti really is disrupting things in the industry
in only good ways.

I think it's cool. I'm probably going to buy an ER now just to check it 
out. But reading the caveats and the capabilities of it - it is 
certainly not a replacement for something like a Procera. But, for 
someone that is just looking for a way to identify some application 
traffic, especially as a free update, it's pretty impressive.

I don't know why anyone would have a problem with them putting this 
on existing routers. If you don't like their routers, don't buy them. 
If you do like their routers but think a feature shouldn't be there, 
don't enable it.


I think it's great that ubiquiti innovates the way they do. They have 
some great products that blow other products out of the water in one 
way or another. And it's forced other companies to lower their 
seriously over priced equipment and to rethink their strategies. 
Ubiquiti really is disrupting things in the industry in only good ways.

Re: [AFMUG] Ubiquiti DPI?

2015-07-24 Thread Paul Stewart
I understand what you’re saying … yes, people (like myself) complaining about 
something free … totally understand that part.

 

But many times when a vendor brings in something major and new, it often causes 
problems with code on routers/switches that has worked perfectly fine for a 
long time.  To bring DPI into any router involves a significant amount of 
codebase change very low on the IP stack .. a lot can go wrong…

I had/have that concern as well. But it is mind boggling to me that so many 
people are complaining about ubiquiti putting in this value added feature 
(quite well I may add). I have never seen so many complaints about features 
being added. Shouldn't we instead complain about the needed features their 
products are missing? 

 

Complaining about ubiquiti adding in DPI, even if it sucked, is like 
complaining that you get a dozen free games when you buy an XBox One. You may 
not like the games you get, but they are free and you don't have to play them 
if you don't want.

Yup… and sometimes “perceived value” is just as important … perhaps they found 
a way to roll out DPI and fully support it … a DPI that works and is 
updated/supported … that would truly be awesome.

 

But sometimes to get people to “buy in” to stuff there has to be some kind of 
value … and the value of “oh we include that for free” works negatively in a 
lot of situations – especially for those folks that have been working with 
various DPI gear for a long time.  It’s hard to take it seriously is what I’m 
saying…

My view is with DPI, like virus scanning or spam filtering, you are buying the 
updates as much as the platform.  If the signatures and rules aren’t kept up to 
date, it loses value.  Any vendor that uses this feature to sell hardware and 
doesn’t charge a yearly fee may not understand the task.

Re: [AFMUG] Ubiquiti DPI?

2015-07-24 Thread Paul Stewart
Because routers typically don’t have the “horsepower” to drive DPI related 
tasks.  Every major DPI vendor uses a series of (typically custom) ASIC’s to 
offload the intensive processing required.   I would also question if Ubiquiti 
is really loading up the internal resources required to support something they 
are giving away for free… 

 

I think Ubiquiti has done a great job at disrupting for sure .. and I know that 
myself personally am going to spend some time again looking at their stuff and 
try to understand where it “fits”.But name one company that has had to 
“lower their seriously over priced equipment and to rethink their strategies” 
because of Ubiquiti routers/switches?

Re: [AFMUG] Ubiquiti DPI?

2015-07-23 Thread Simon Westlake
I'm reading the engineering info. Looks like you would almost want to 
deploy an ER standalone to do this, as there are a lot of things that 
makes DPI not work.


A few things to note:

 * This feature is integrated with the offload feature, so unlike
   NetFlow (flow accounting), it does not disable offload. Conversely,
   stats are not available for traffic that is not offloaded. More
   specifically, here are examples of the common cases where traffic
   would not show up in traffic analysis:
 o In this context "offload" refers to the IPv4 forwarding, VLAN,
   PPPoE, and GRE offload. If offload is disabled in the
   configuration ("system offload ipv4 ...") then traffic analysis
   would not show traffic of course.
 o Currently if NetFlow ("system flow-accounting ...") or "modify"
   firewall rule ("firewall modify ...") is configured, offload is
   disabled completely in which case no traffic is eligible for
   traffic analysis. (Exception is if "modify" firewall is only
   used for "table" or "lb-group" action then offload is not disabled.)
 o Traffic to which QoS policy is applied is not eligible for
   offload and therefore will not appear in traffic analysis. This
   includes the "traffic-policy" and the new "traffic-control"
   (smart queue) settings in the configuration. In such cases
   traffic that are not affected by QoS (e.g., traffic on other
   interfaces) can still be offloaded and still be displayed in
   traffic analysis.
 o Traffic going through certain interface types are not offloaded,
   for example, bridge, bonding, pseudo-ethernet, VPN interfaces, etc.
 o Traffic that needs to be processed by certain firewall rules are
   not offloaded, for example, packets going through firewall rules
   that involve "limit", "recent", or "time" matching criteria will
   not be offloaded.


You can also cannot perform any policy enforcement using the rules, so I 
think it is a bit of creative marketing to say compare it directly to 
fully fledged DPI systems. That being said, the interface looks pretty 
nice and I can see it being useful for diagnosis and monitoring.
