Flow Replication Network Packet Broker Or Network TAPs Replication Visibility from Multiport Links
What is Network Packet Broker's Network Visibility for Flow Replication?
Network visibility is enabling network administrators to capture, replicate, aggregate, precess, forward, analysis and see network traffic and applications that are traveling across Wide Area and Local Area network links. Once captured, the network traffic can be mapped to various tools for analytics, performance enhancement and security. There are many specialized tools to perform these functions that all must be connected to network links in order to provide traffic data to tools. This connectivity is the foundation of visibility and can be managed in one of three ways. Direct connection is where the tools are connected directly to live links. This allows the tool to directly see and manipulate traffic. It becomes an integral part of the network and will be able to analyze data, block data and send packets back into the network. The primary limitation of direct in-line connection is potential network disruption, if the tool should go off line due to a power disruption, maintenance or any other reason make the network down. If the tool goes down, the link goes down. If you have multiple tools on a link, the probability for disruption increases accordingly. There are also financial considerations with this method. In target networks, it can be financially stressful to deploy multiple network tools on every link.
Background Introduction
Matrix-TCA-CG is a network data visualization control device for high density and large flow of 10G/40G/100G.
Matrix-TCA-CG is specially designed for the data collection of 10GE 40GE and 100GE links distributed intensively in operators mobile Internet export, IDC export, provincial network and backbone.
Based on ATCA standard architecture, MATRIX-TCA-CG has high carrier-level reliability and strong expansibility which can smoothly configure the functional board CARDS to cope with port demand scenarios of various specifications and sizes.
NT-TCA-RTM-EXG24 10G, 40G, 100G Interface Expansion RTM Board
Service Interface:
1- 10 x QSFP28 100G(compatible with 40G) interface
NT-TCA-RTM-CG10 100G interfaces scalable rear card must be used with the front card(NT-TCA-SCG10/NT-TCA-CG10). The NT-TCA-RTM-CG10 is an interface function scalable card, which can provide 10 100G QSFP28 interfaces in the rear panel of the chassis to complete 100GE data acquisition input or convergence distribution output.
2- 24 x SFP+ 10G(compatible with 1G) interface
NT-TCA-RTM-EXG24 10G interface scalable card must be used with the front card(NT-TCA-SCG10/NT-TCA-CG10/NT-TCA-XG24).Through this card, 24 10GSFP+ Ethernet interfaces can be provided in the rear panel of the chassis to complete data acquisition or convergence split output of 10G links.
