With the rapid development of Internet technology, the type and quantity of network traffic data have increased accordingly, and network traffic classification has become an important research task. In previous research, there are methods based on traditional machine learning and deep learning; compared to machine learning, deep learning can obtain good results by converting network traffic into two-dimensional images and utilizing deep learning classification models. However, all of these methods have some limitations: the trained models cannot learn sustainably, and the generalization ability of the models is limited. In order to solve this problem, we propose a network traffic classification methods based on incremental learning and Mixup, which is based on generative adversarial networks. First, the network traffic is converted into a 2D image, the original database is linearly interpolated using Mixup to reduce the overfitting tendency of the model and improve the generalization ability, and the traffic is classified using the ability of deep learning on the image. Secondly, we improve the traditional incremental learning algorithm. To effectively address the imbalance between old and new categories in incremental learning. The experimental results show that the model performs well in classification experiments, reaching 92.26% and 93.86% accuracy on the ISCXVPN2016 and USTC datasets, respectively, and we can maintain a high accuracy rate with limited storage space in the process of increasing new categories.
