A method for deep packet inspection (DPI) in a software defined network (SDN). The method includes configuring a plurality of network nodes operable in the SDN with at least one probe instruction; receiving from a network node a first packet of a flow, the first packet matches the at least one probe instruction and includes a first sequence number; receiving from a network node a second packet of the flow, the second packet matches the at least one probe instruction and includes a second sequence number, the second packet is a response of the first packet; computing a mask value respective of at least the first and second sequence numbers indicating which bytes to be mirrored from subsequent packets belonging to the same flow; generating at least one mirror instruction based on at least the mask value; and configuring the plurality of network nodes with at least one mirror instruction.
A method for use with a packet network including a network node for transporting packets between first and second entities under control of a controller that is external to the network node, the method comprising:
