21. A method, comprising:
-
receiving a packet at a capture system, which is configured for a network security application in which filtering occurs such that certain flows originated at a first computer are prohibited from reaching their originally intended destination; determining a location classification for the packet within a tiered location structure of the capture system, the location classification being based, at least in part, on an Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with the packet; and storing the location classification as part of metadata associated with the packet. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A capture system, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory, wherein the capture system is configured for; receiving a packet at a capture system, which is configured for a network security application in which filtering occurs such that certain flows originated at a first computer are prohibited from reaching their originally intended destination; determining a location classification for the packet within a tiered location structure of the capture system, the location classification being based, at least in part, on an Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with the packet; and storing the location classification as part of metadata associated with the packet. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
