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, today’s network visibility fabrics also must supply traffic to inline security tools such as a next-gen firewall, WAF, or IPS to protect critical parts of the network.
