Description
The GigaVUE-420 is a modular packet-aware Data Access Switch supporting 10/100/1000 & 10Gig Ethernet. GigaVUE-420 aggregates, multicasts, filters, & divides traffic flows across multiple passive monitoring tools. It is a purposebuilt hardware switch capable of full line rate performance and transfer latency of only 6 ?sec. Nearly any number of traffic sources may be aggregated, filtered, & then distributed to one or more monitoring tools at any speed. Hardware filters based on any pattern in the 128-byte header may be enabled to eliminate unwanted packets. The system is managed remotely by telnet or SSH2 & authenticated with TACAC+ or RADIUS.
The GigaVUE-420 enables the DAN (Data Access Network)
Unobtrusive to the production network, the GigaVUE-420 provides out-of-band ports for passive monitoring tools. Tools may be added without affecting the network at any hour without Configuration Management review. Multiple GigaVUE-420 systems can be stacked to create a 222 port DAN. All ports can be configured as network or tool ports.
