Video identification in encrypted network traffic dataset (VPN)

This dataset is used for the identification of video in the internet traffic. The dataset was prepared by using Wireshark. It comprises of two types of traffic data, VPN (Virtual Private Network) or encrypted traffic data and Non-VPN or unencrypted traffic. The dataset consist of the data streams (.pcap) of 43 videos. Each video is played 50 times in both VPN and Non-VPN mode. The streams were obtained by setting-up a dummy client on a PC which plays a YouTube video and Wireshark is used to capture the internet traffic. The capturing is performed for 2 minutes and record is created with the video id.The dataset was created to identify video in the encrypted network traffic without decrypting the network traffic.

本数据集旨在识别互联网流量中的视频内容。该数据集通过Wireshark工具采集构建，涵盖两类流量数据：虚拟专用网络（Virtual Private Network，VPN）加密流量与非虚拟专用网络（Non-VPN）非加密流量。数据集包含43个视频的.pcap格式数据流文件，每个视频均分别在虚拟专用网络与非虚拟专用网络模式下各播放50次。上述数据流通过在个人计算机上搭建模拟客户端播放YouTube视频采集得到，采集过程中使用Wireshark捕获互联网流量，单次捕获时长为2分钟，并以视频编号生成对应记录文件。本数据集的构建目标为在无需解密网络流量的前提下，识别加密网络流量中的视频内容。
