In one embodiment, a method of walking a non-deterministic finite automata (NFA) graph representing a pattern includes extracting a node type and an element from a node of the NFA graph. The method further includes matching a segment of a payload for the element by matching the payload for the element at least zero times, the number of times based on the node type.
