This article is the second in a multi-part series on the management of Taps and Network Packet Brokers. This chapter focuses on Fault Management including Detection, Correlation/Aggregation, Diagnosis/Isolation, Restoration, and Resolution.
Network Taps, in addition to being available for copper or fiber media, can be purchased in a fixed configuration, typically called “duplex Taps” – or as “Aggregation Taps.” The latter category offers options for how the data copies are distributed among the monitor ports. This article will clarify the differences between the two Tap types, as well as exploring the rationale for different Tap configurations, and examples of their applications.
How to use chaining with Inline Monitoring Tools and Network Bypass Switches.
When looking at some of the simpler network device types such as taps and network packet brokers there are a few factors involved in trying to determine which management system interfaces should be supported and to what extent.
Any system is only as good as the data that is put into it. Where you acquire this data and seeing the entire data stream has never been more important. In this post we will discuss the reasons for this, and how to do it on your network.
While data encryption should still be a critical part of your network security protocol, it cannot be your only form of protection
Copper network taps are widely used in government, military, healthcare and numerous industries, globally. When copper is already in place, utilizing it makes sense. Its cost-effective nature and dependability in many high-risk environments make it a great choice.
The FTP-1516 can reduce the total cost of implementing a monitoring solution by allowing a 40G link to be monitored without using expensive 40G ports. The FTP-1516 allows you to leverage existing 10G monitoring ports and can be a cost effective alternative to upgrading to a 40G monitoring solution.
Bring your own device (BYOD) makes healthcare network and information security more difficult to maintain. Implementing a dynamic, strong security system can assist with HIPAA compliance and compensate for the challenges brought about by BYOD.
