Improve Network Packet Broker ROI with an Aggregation Layer
The aggregation layer, and thus the four-tiered approach to network visibility grew out of the need to maximize the ROI of NPBs and monitoring and security tools. Before we talk about the aggregation layer and the benefits it brings, let’s...
Network Visibility Fabric Design - Focus on the Core
We’ve previously talked about the importance of the access layer, aggregation layer and edge to a well-designed network visibility fabric. Tapped traffic from the access layer flows to the aggregation layer, where it’s collected,...
The Role of Bypass Solutions in a Network Visibility Fabric
Designing complete network visibility solutions takes more than just Network TAPs and Network Packet Brokers at key points in the access and aggregation layers of the network. With network security being more important than ever before,...
Network Visibility Fabric Design: Add an Aggregation Layer
“A well-designed network visibility fabric will help enterprises assure network and application performance and reduce security and compliance risk.” We’ve previously explored the importance of the access layer in a well-designed network...
Foundation of Visibility: 6 Reasons to Choose TAPs instead of SPAN
Designing your network infrastructure, whether it’s for an upgrade or a new data center, is a complex project filled with many challenges. But one that should be easy to overcome is the decision to rely on Network TAPs as the foundation of...
Network Visibility Fabric Design: Starts with the Access Layer
Network visibility fabrics, a combination of network TAPs, network packet brokers, aggregation devices, and bypass devices, play a critical role for network performance management and security operations.
