`
`Palo Alto Networks has been aware ofthe status of these litigations and IPRs and
`
`of the existence and subject matter of the Asserted Patents since at least January 18, 2019, at
`
`which time PacketIntelligence sent a notice letter alleging Palo Alto Networks infringes the
`
`Asserted Patents.
`
`IV.
`
`BACKGROUND AND FACTS
`
`21.
`
`The Asserted Patents are generally directed to systems and methodsforclassifying
`
`and monitoring network traffic as well as the use of state operations and state-of-the-flow analysis
`
`to accommodate classification and monitoring of networktraffic. These innovative concepts
`
`enable classification of data packets passing through a network to provide detailed insight and
`
`information to network managers and operators. More specifically, the Asserted Patents disclose
`
`and claim improved techniques for monitoring networktraffic through, among otherthings,
`
`categorizing networktraffic into “conversational flows” — relating sequences of data packets
`
`exchanged in any direction over a network comprising multiple connections among network
`
`devices, which may beclient or server devices, based on specific application activity. This was an
`
`improvement over conventional systems and methodsfor classifying and monitoring network
`
`traffic based only on “connection flows” — data packets transmitted over a single network
`
`connection.
`
`22.
`
`Traffic classification involves detecting the underlying protocols used within a data
`
`packet, as well as the applications or user activity responsible for generating networktraffic. It
`
`also involves identifying the underlying protocols/applications of a flow along with recording
`
`traffic statistics. Such classification and monitoring provide network administrators with detailed
`
`information about their networks, which can be used to diagnose network problems, control
`
`bandwidth allocation, and ensure an appropriate quality of service for users.
`
`23.|Conventional network monitors categorized network transmissions into
`
`“connection flows.” A connection flow refers to the packets involved in a single connection and
`
`relate to a negotiated transmission between specific addresses on two devices. A connection flow
`
`correlates to the source and destination IP address/port pairs used on both ends of the connection

`
`without inspecting the packet’s payload deeper than the headersof the transport layer! containing
`
`port information. The problem with only tracking connection flowsis that certain applications and
`
`protocols may generate multiple connections. In other words, a single application may spawn
`
`multiple connections for a single activity. For example, if user A wants to have a Skypecall with
`
`user B, the Skype application may create multiple connections between computer A and B to
`
`conduct the call. There might be one connection which supplies setup information, a second
`
`connection for transmitting video information, and a third connection for transmitting audio
`
`information. Conventional network monitors would consider these three separate connections
`
`even thoughthey originated from a single Skypecall.
`
`24.
`
`The Asserted Patents improved upon these conventional network monitoring
`
`systems and methods by categorizing network transmissions into “conversational flows” rather
`
`than merely in “connection flows.” Unlike connection flow, conversational flow is the sequence
`
`of packets that are exchangedin any direction as a result of a particular activity—for instance, the
`
`running of an application on a server as requested by a client—which may include multiple
`
`connections, transmissions, or exchangesin either direction between the participants in the
`
`conversation. This addressed the problem ofdisjointed flows in network communications through
`
`“virtually concatenating,” or linking, all related conversational exchanges.
`
`25.
`
`“Conversational flows” are identified through parsing and analyzing data packets at
`
`deeper layers to extract information used to classify each data packet, determining whetherit
`
`belongsto an existing conversational flow or is part of a new conversational flow. This is
`
`accomplished, in part, by populating a parsing/extraction operations memory anda state
`
`patterns/operations and database with machine operations that implement programmable rules and
`
`instructions for inspecting packets to identify patterns forming conversational flows.
`
`26.
`
`Networktraffic is inspected for pattern recognition to determine protocol types and
`
`headers for each protocol layer. Extracted packet information is compared to stored data
`
`' The functionality underlying network communicationsis often viewed in terms of conceptual
`See
`layers, such as those defined in the 7 Layer OSI Model. See OSI Model,
`https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSLmodel(visited July 27, 2018). Several different protocol
`options may be available at each layer to accomplish specific tasks needed by the layer aboveit.

`
`corresponding to prior network transmissions to determine whethera current transmission belongs
`
`to a knownflow comprising previously inspected transmissions. Extracted data may also be used
`
`to determinethe different states, state transitions, and/or state operations to be performed
`
`corresponding to a conversational flow to aid in predicting and/or identifying subsequent
`
`transmissions within a conversational flow and/or to determine the termination of a conversational
`
`flow. One of the many advantagesof the invention is properly analyzing the packets exchanged
`
`between a client and a server and maintaining information relevant to the current state of each of
`
`these conversational flows.
`
`27.
`
`Classifying transmissions in the context of conversational flows provides several
`
`benefits over conventional network monitoring systems and methods, including accommodation
`
`of: more flexible and effective stateful firewall operations to permit network operators greater
`
`flexibility in configuring network security policies; more robust understanding of the quality of
`
`service (“QoS”) and bandwidth usage of a multiple connection flow application whereby certain
`
`networktraffic could be excluded from data usage limits, bandwidth throttling may be applied to
`
`specific applications or services, and access to certain web browser applications may berestricted
`
`at specified times; and, eavesdropping or lawful interception, by cloningall of thetraffic of a
`
`conversational flow, which allows another user on the network, or elsewhere, to read the content
`
`exchanged overthe network without the knowledge of the original recipient.

`
`THE ACCUSED PRODUCTS
`
`28.
`
`The “Accused Products” include Palo Alto Networks products, such as firewall
`
`products that include the App-ID feature other similar functionality. These products include, but
`
`are not limited to: PA-Series Firewall products (PA-200, PA-220, PA-220R, PA-7000, PA-7050,
`
`PA-7080; VM-Series Firewall products (VM-50, VM-100, VM-300, VM-500, VM-700) and
`
`K2-Series Firewall Products.
`
`29.
`
`The App-ID feature of the Accused Products allows inspection of packets at layers
`
`3-7 of the OSI model to allow identification of a protocol associated with the packet and to
`
`determine the particular application associated with the packet. Palo Alto Networks’
`
`documentation describes this capability as shown below:

`App-ID™ uses as manyas four identification techniques to
`determine the exact identity of applications traversing the
`network—irrespective of port, protocol, evasive tactic, or
`SSL encryption. Identifying the application is the very first
`task performed by App-ID, providing administrators with
`the greatest amount of application knowledge and the
`most flexibility in terms of safe application.

`
`The flow chart showsseveral decision points during the processing of a packet in
`
`the App-ID feature. The Accused Products can be used to implement Quality of Service (“QOS”)
`
`policies that are applied to packets based on the application that is identified. A network operator
`
`using the Accused Products can set QOSpolicies that can limit the bandwidth for certain
`
`applications during peak hours or prioritize packets associated with applications requiring more
`
`bandwidth, e.g., streaming video.

`
`Networksindirectly infringed and continuesto indirectly infringe at least claim 1 of the ’099
`
`Patent by active inducement under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b). Palo Alto Networks has induced, caused,
`
`urged, encouraged, aided and abetted its direct and indirect customers to make,use,sell, offer for
`
`sale and/or import one or more of the Accused Products, and thus indirectly infringes at least
`
`claim 1 of the °099 Patent. Palo Alto Networks has doneso by acts including but not limited to
`
`(1) selling such products including features that—when used or resold—infringe,either literally or
`
`under the doctrine of equivalents, the ’099 Patent; (2) marketing the infringing capabilities of such
`
`products; and (3) providing instructions, technical support, and other support and encouragement
`
`for the use of such products, including at least the documents referenced above. Such conduct by
`
`Palo Alto Networks was intended to and actually did result in direct infringement by Palo Alto
`
`Networks’ direct and indirect customers, including the making, using,selling, offering for sale
`
`and/or importation of the Accused Products in the United States.

`
`Palo Alto Networks’ infringement of the ’099 Patent has damaged Packet
`
