We recently uploaded a video to our YouTube channel going over a new backend DumaOS tool called Auto DPI (Deep Packet Inspection). This is the first large scale update that the team are currently pushing to the cloud. This means if your router is running the newest firmware (currently 3.3) then it will automatically download the DPI update.

What is DPI?

Deep packet inspection (DPI) is a technique used to examine and classify data as it travels through a network. It involves analyzing the content of data packets beyond just the header information, allowing for more detailed identification and categorization of the data being transmitted. DPI can be used to optimize network performance, ensure compliance with security policies, and even restrict or block certain types of traffic. It is a powerful tool that can provide valuable insights into network activity, but also raises concerns about privacy and data integrity. Overall, DPI is a complex technology that is increasingly being used to manage and secure modern networks.
