Re: Hash function for ip 4-tuple

[Alex Adamos <alexthakidadam () hotmail com>]

Thanks Andrei, i'll try that!How do you get the IP? in sfSnortPacket structure its a sfip_t type. Is it done with 
sfip_to_str and then something like strtol?

    I'm not professional in that. When i
      need quick solution, I tried
          the following method. 

      

      ( IP1*(2^16) + port1)  xor  ( IP2*(2^16) + port2 )

      

      It is a
          simple method, and
          does not guarantee that no
          conflicts.

      

      This worked for my needs. 

      

      

    
    
      
      
        Hi,
        

        
        in order to keep track of flows in my DPX i want to create
          a hash table, but i don't have
            any experience in hashing. Can anyone propose any idea how the hash function
            should be? 
        

          
        Thanks,
        Alex.
