Please refer to the original data article for further data description: Jan Luxemburk et al. CESNET-QUIC22: A large one-month QUIC network traffic dataset from backbone lines, Data in Brief, 2023, 108888, ISSN 2352-3409, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dib.2023.108888. We recommend using the CESNET DataZoo python library, which facilitates the work with large network traffic datasets. More information about the DataZoo project can be found in the GitHub repository https://github.com/CESNET/cesnet-datazoo. The QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connection) protocol has the potential to replace TLS over TCP, which is the standard choice for reliable and secure Internet communication. Due to its design that makes the inspection of QUIC handshakes challenging and its usage in HTTP/3, there is an increasing demand for research in QUIC traffic analysis. This dataset contains one month of QUIC traffic collected in an ISP backbone network, which connects 500 large institutions and serves around half a million people. The data are delivered as enriched flows that can be useful for various network monitoring tasks. The provided server names and packet-level information allow research in the encrypted traffic classification area. Moreover, included QUIC versions and user agents (smartphone, web browser, and operating system identifiers) provide information for large-scale QUIC deployment studies. Data capture The data was captured in the flow monitoring infrastructure of the CESNET2 network. The capturing was done for four weeks between 31.10.2022 and 27.11.2022. The following list provides per-week flow count, capture period, and uncompressed size: W-2022-44 Uncompressed Size: 19 GB Capture Period: 31.10.2022 - 6.11.2022 Number of flows: 32.6M W-2022-45 Uncompressed Size: 25 GB Capture Period: 7.11.2022 - 13.11.2022 Number of flows: 42.6M W-2022-46 Uncompressed Size: 20 GB Capture Period: 14.11.2022 - 20.11.2022 Number of flows: 33.7M W-2022-47 Uncompressed Size: 25 GB Capture Period: 21.11.2022 - 27.11.2022 Number of flows: 44.1M CESNET-QUIC22 Uncompressed Size: 89 GB Capture Period: 31.10.2022 - 27.11.2022 Number of flows: 153M Data description The dataset consists of network flows describing encrypted QUIC communications. Flows were created using ipfixprobe flow exporter and are extended with packet metadata sequences, packet histograms, and with fields extracted from the QUIC Initial Packet, which is the first packet of the QUIC connection handshake. The extracted handshake fields are the Server Name Indication (SNI) domain, the used version of the QUIC protocol, and the user agent string that is available in a subset of QUIC communications. Packet Sequences Flows in the dataset are extended with sequences of packet sizes, directions, and inter-packet times. For the packet sizes, we consider payload size after transport headers (UDP headers for the QUIC case). Packet directions are encoded as ±1, +1 meaning a packet sent from client to server, and -1 a packet from server to client. Inter-packet times depend on the location of communicating hosts, their distance, and on the network conditions on the path. However, it is still possible to extract relevant information that correlates with user interactions and, for example, with the time required for an API/server/database to process the received data and generate the response to be sent in the next packet. Packet metadata sequences have a length of 30, which is the default setting of the used flow exporter. We also derive three fields from each packet sequence: its length, time duration, and the number of roundtrips. The roundtrips are counted as the number of changes in the communication direction (from packet directions data); in other words, each client request and server response pair counts as one roundtrip. Flow statistics Flows also include standard flow statistics, which represent aggregated information about the entire bidirectional flow. The fields are: the number of transmitted bytes and packets in both directions, the duration of flow, and packet histograms. Packet histograms include binned counts of packet sizes and inter-packet times of the entire flow in both directions (more information in the PHISTS plugin documentation There are eight bins with a logarithmic scale; the intervals are 0-15, 16-31, 32-63, 64-127, 128-255, 256-511, 512-1024, >1024 [ms or B]. The units are milliseconds for inter-packet times and bytes for packet sizes. Moreover, each flow has its end reason - either it was idle, reached the active timeout, or ended due to other reasons. This corresponds with the official IANA IPFIX-specified values. The FLOW_ENDREASON_OTHER field represents the forced end and lack of resources reasons. The end of flow detected reason is not considered because it is not relevant for UDP connections. Dataset structure The dataset flows are delivered in compressed CSV files. CSV files contain one flow per row; data columns are summarized in the provided list belo...

We recommend using the CESNET DataZoo python library, which facilitates the work with large network traffic datasets. More information about the DataZoo project can be found in the GitHub repository https://github.com/CESNET/cesnet-datazoo.

The modern approach for network traffic classification (TC), which is an important part of operating and securing networks, is to use machine learning (ML) models that are able to learn intricate relationships between traffic characteristics and communicating applications. A crucial prerequisite is having representative datasets. However, datasets collected from real production networks are not being published in sufficient numbers. Thus, this paper presents a novel dataset, CESNET-TLS-Year22, that captures the evolution of TLS traffic in an ISP network over a year. The dataset contains 180 web service labels and standard TC features, such as packet sequences. The unique year-long time span enables comprehensive evaluation of TC models and assessment of their robustness in the face of the ever-changing environment of production networks.

Data description The dataset consists of network flows describing encrypted TLS communications. Flows are extended with packet sequences, histograms, and fields extracted from the TLS ClientHello message, which is transmitted in the first packet of the TLS connection handshake. The most important extracted handshake field is the SNI domain, which is used for ground-truth labeling.

Packet Sequences Sequences of packet sizes, directions, and inter-packet times are standard data input for traffic analysis. For packet sizes, we consider the payload size after transport headers (TCP headers for the TLS case). We omit packets with no TCP payload, for example ACKs, because zero-payload packets are related to the transport layer internals rather than services’ behavior. Packet directions are encoded as ±1, where +1 means a packet sent from client to server, and -1 is a packet from server to client. Inter-packet times depend on the location of communicating hosts, their distance, and on the network conditions on the path. However, it is still possible to extract relevant information that correlates with user interactions and, for example, with the time required for an API/server/database to process the received data and generate a response. Packet sequences have a maximum length of 30, which is the default setting of the used flow exporter. We also derive three fields from each packet sequence: its length, time duration, and the number of roundtrips. The roundtrips are counted as the number of changes in the communication direction; in other words, each client request and server response pair counts as one roundtrip.

Flow statistics Each data record also includes standard flow statistics, representing aggregated information about the entire bidirectional connection. The fields are the number of transmitted bytes and packets in both directions, the duration of the flow, and packet histograms. The packet histograms include binned counts (not limited to the first 30 packets) of packet sizes and inter-packet times in both directions. There are eight bins with a logarithmic scale; the intervals are 0-15, 16-31, 32-63, 64-127, 128-255, 256-511, 512-1024, >1024 [ms or B]. The units are milliseconds for inter-packet times and bytes for packet sizes (More information in the PHISTS plugin documentation). Moreover, each flow has its end reason---either it ended with the TCP connection termination (FIN packets), was idle, reached the active timeout, or ended due to other reasons. This corresponds with the official IANA IPFIX-specified values. The FLOW_ENDREASON_OTHER field represents the forced end and lack of resources reasons.

CSV files contain one flow per row; data columns are summarized in the provided list below. For each flow data file, there is a JSON file with the total number of saved flows and the number of flows per service.
