Accessible Network Quality and Effectiveness Across Infrastructures
Packets are the smallest data point carried across a network. This granular unit is required for network administrators to collect comprehensive network analysis, but when information systems are inundated with information, packet loss and performance bottlenecks are inevitable. Having a high-performance diagnostic appliance that can be integrated at almost any point in the network, either directly at the premise or accessed remotely, is an asset to network administrators for forensic analysis.
Allegro Packets troubleshooting devices and Garland Technology’s visibility products provide market-leading forensic analysis, examining 100% of the packet-level data that travels across the network. This highly efficient solution ensures optimal network productivity and performance, analyzing faults and peak loads, without compromising quality.
Portable Solution for Forensic Analysis
-
For easy remote access, the Garland portable network TAPs provide complete packet visibility from the router.
-
The packets are delivered to the lightweight Allegro 500 for high-performance real-time analysis and monitoring applications.
-
Capture and display of real-time analytics are featured on the Allegro Network Multimeters web interface.
Leveraging Full Inline and Out-of-Band Security and Monitoring Solution
-
Garland Technology’s EdgeLens Focus purpose-built bypass TAP, packet broker hybrid, provides failsafe and heartbeat technology while managing the availability to the firewall.
-
From the tapped critical link, the EdgeLens Focus delivers filtered, aggregated, and load-balanced copies of out-of-band traffic to the Allegro 1000
-
Allegro 1000 analyzes, investigates, and troubleshoots all network data.
-
The Allegro 1000 can then tunnel to a second Allegro 1000, delivering and processing packets from remote locations.
Scalable Network TAP to Aggregation For Complex Data Centers
- Garland Technology’s high density SelectTAP copies 100% wire data from many high-speed links.
- The traffic from the Network TAP is delivered to Garland Technology’s PacketMAXTM Advance Aggregator, which aggregates, filters, load balances, and adds a VLAN tag to the packets.
- Allegro Network Multimeter analyzes each VLAN as a separate virtual link Group in one Allegro x300 or x500, which captures petabytes of traffic.
