Question 1: L2 classification

What are the fields of the packet that you can match if you want to implement Layer-2 classification ?

Question 2: L3 classification

What are the fields of the packet that you can match if you want to implement Layer-3 classification ?

Question 3: L4 classification

What are the fields of the packet that you can match if you want to implement Layer-4 classification ?

Question 4: Application layer classification

What are the fields of the packet that you can match if you want to implement application-level (or layer 7) classification ?
