The IPReuse/mrl tool -- a NAT link-learning daemon integrated with Marsio (which fills VXLAN headers using MRL-supplied virtual link IDs) and MAAT (shared 'maat_feather' candidate/nominee tables) -- ships a Kazakhstan-specific MaxMind-format IP geolocation database (Kazakhstan_v4.mmdb) directly in its own config directory and again inside its bundled IPLocator dependency. Commit history describes self-learning of link info, SNAT/DNAT policy support, and sending virtual link IDs to 'the platform' for Marsio's VXLAN encapsulation.

An internal TSG operations/troubleshooting manual lays out TSG's full traffic pipeline (NIC -> mrzcpd/marsio capture driver -> sapp DPI engine -> firewall/proxy(KNI->TFE)/active-defense/WAN-NAT policy branches) and shows engineers using maat_redis_tool to pull the live Redis-synced blocking policy tables (TSG_SECURITY_COMPILE, TSG_OBJ_IP_ADDR, TSG_OBJ_APP_ID) and filter them by numeric policy/object ID to debug why a block rule isn't firing.

An internal "DPI Benchmark" methodology document names the three production components underlying TSG's DPI stack and proposes benchmarking each against open-source equivalents: Marsio (DPDK-based packet I/O) for receive/transmit, Sapp ("网络安全开发平台", a high-speed traffic-processing platform) for protocol parsing and flow-table management, and Maat (Hyperscan-class signature engine with Redis-based multi-machine config sync) for pattern scanning.

Primary-source MESA Lab wiki documentation confirms SAPP ("Stream Analyse Process Platform") is a plugin-based traffic-inspection engine achieving 10-40Gbps per hardware unit, deployable either inline (串联) or as a passive mirror tap (并联), and exposes core platform APIs available to any business-layer plugin for forging a TCP RST (MESA_kill_tcp), spoofing a fake SYN/ACK to block connection establishment (MESA_kill_tcp_synack), and injecting arbitrary application-layer data into an established flow (MESA_inject_pkt).

"stellar" (git.mesalab.cn / geedgenetworks.com) is a C++ core DPI packet-processing engine with protocol decoders (HTTP, FTP, mail, QUIC, RTP, SIP, DTLS, SSL, DNS, SOCKS, stratum) and a dedicated packet-injection module (src/stellar/inject.cpp) with an extensive TCP-RST-injection test suite covering injection timed after SYN, SYN-ACK, first C2S payload, and sub-ACK. It integrates the MAAT rule engine (security_enforcer.cpp / scanner_maat.c, "Security enforcer maat plugin table"), the Marsio packet-I/O framework (marsio_io.cpp), and glimpse_detector as an integrated decoder plugin ("integration glimpse_detector", "rename to lpi plugin").

The tango/tsg-service-chaining-engine (SCE) repo implements TSG's traffic-steering core: it VXLAN-encapsulates and routes both "raw" and "decrypted" copies of a session (four tracked metadata directions) through a chain of up to 32 third-party "Service Functions", with explicit per-flow actions of block, bypass, forward, and rx_drop for both mirrored and inline-steered traffic, coordinating with SAPP, mrzcpd (packet capture/re-injection), and MAAT4 (rule engine) via control-plane messages.

pangu_valve.conf explicitly binds the 'PanguValve' traffic-control daemon (阀门, ASMIS_PROC_NAME=Pangu/PanguValve) to the Astana, Kazakhstan (K18) site — REMOTE_DIR=ASTANA and a MAAT_EFFECTIVE_RANGE tag of location=Astana — and configures it to receive live rule updates from a MAAT Redis backend rather than static files, tying this enforcement component directly to a real-time MAAT rule-dispatch pipeline at a named export deployment.
