GIGABIT SECURITY AND PERFORMANCE MONITORING FOR ENTERPRISE NETWORKS
SUMMARY OF PRODUCT FEATURES
SUMMARY OF CUSTOMER BENEFITS
Remotely Managed Connectivity – Supporting up
to 20 input or tool ports (10/100/1000 UTP or GigE
fiber) for bidirectional links or “out-of-band” network
monitoring, analysis or security surveillance tools
Any-to-Any (Direct traffic from any link to any
tool; can merge Tx/Rx into a single tool interface)
Many-to-Any (Aggregate traffic from multiple
links into any tool and deliver “Network View”)
Any-to-Many (Multicast copies of singular or
aggregated traffic stream to multiple tools)
• Packet Level Filtering – Dynamic bit-mask filtering
to remove non-relevant traffic in order to reduce
processing overhead on attached tools and to enable
bandwidth-efficient multi-link aggregation
• Backflow Support – Can safely insert TCP Reset
packets, SNMP commands or test traffic initiated by
attached tools into traffic stream without collisions
• Fault Tolerant Design – Production links protected
at all times (for copper, relay closes if power fails;
for fiber, optical switch maintains connection)
• Modularized Design – Install once, and never have
to touch any links again; can add, remove, migrate or
reconfigure tools at-will without impacting network
GigaVUE reduces Total-Cost-of-Ownership
“Bring New Life to Your Tools” – Reduce
CapEX by aggregating and filtering relevant
traffic across the network into single-link tools
“Do More with Less” – Reduce OpEX by
centralizing support and tool management; also,
fewer tools means fewer false positives reported
Restore LAN switch performance and free up
network resources by not overtaxing SPAN ports
GigaVUE improves network operations
No need to break links and no more fighting over
SPAN ports or access taps (both the Security and
IT Departments can get custom access as needed)
“Virtual Crash Cart” greatly expedites “Time-to-Resolution” – GigaVUE can instantly deploy
network tools to any link, at any time, from
anywhere – automatically updating and finding
paths to troubled links based on host description
GigaVUE allows “Pay-as-you-Grow”
Up to 32 boxes can be easily “stacked” using the
GigaLINK ports to access up to 640 links or tools
• GigaVUE is “Future-Proof”
Support migration to 10Gig tools; can reassign
input ports to support more tools and vice versa
