Understanding NBAR

Network-Based Application Recognition (NBAR) is a feature of Cisco network devices that allows for the classification and identification of applications and protocols within network traffic. By using deep packet inspection, NBAR can analyze data packets to determine the specific applications and services being used on the network. This information is valuable for network administrators in implementing quality of service (QoS) policies, access control, and network optimization.
