Garland Technology partners NEOX NETWORKS and Fonitec Network Solutions at EMEA Intelligence 2014. EMEA Intelligence is an international intelligence, forensic sciences and surveillance technologies conference and exhibition, which will take place in Ankara/Turkey.

2014_Emea_IntelligenceBuffalo, NY (PRWEB) April 29, 2014 -- Garland Technology partners NEOX NETWORKS and Fonitec Network Solutions will be traveling to the EMEA Intelligence conference in Turkey. The partnership will showcase the joint network visibility solutions available to the forensic sciences and intelligence community that these three firms have to offer.

“Our products are important to the industries most represented at EMEA Intelligence,” said Bihary. “Any intelligence firm that needs 100% visibility and relies on their network being up 100% of the time is a perfect fit for our partnership’s solutions.”

Timur Ozcan, of NEOX NETWORKS, and Şükrü Durmaz, of Fonitec Network Solutions, will be representing this partnership. Their combined years of experience in both the tech and network architecture solutions industries provide clients with a great deal of knowledge about network visibility.

The three firms hope to show potential clients how network Test Access Points (TAPs) are an integral piece of the surveillance and intelligence technology ecosystem.

Heartbeats Packets Inside the Bypass TAP

If the inline security tool goes off-line, the TAP will bypass the tool and automatically keep the link flowing. The Bypass TAP does this by sending heartbeat packets to the inline security tool. As long as the inline security tool is on-line, the heartbeat packets will be returned to the TAP, and the link traffic will continue to flow through the inline security tool.

If the heartbeat packets are not returned to the TAP (indicating that the inline security tool has gone off-line), the TAP will automatically 'bypass' the inline security tool and keep the link traffic flowing. The TAP also removes the heartbeat packets before sending the network traffic back onto the critical link.

While the TAP is in bypass mode, it continues to send heartbeat packets out to the inline security tool so that once the tool is back on-line, it will begin returning the heartbeat packets back to the TAP indicating that the tool is ready to go back to work. The TAP will then direct the network traffic back through the inline security tool along with the heartbeat packets placing the tool back inline.

Some of you may have noticed a flaw in the logic behind this solution!  You say, “What if the TAP should fail because it is also in-line? Then the link will also fail!” The TAP would now be considered a point of failure. That is a good catch – but in our blog on Bypass vs. Failsafe, I explained that if a TAP were to fail or lose power, it must provide failsafe protection to the link it is attached to. So our network TAP will go into Failsafe mode keeping the link flowing.

Glossary

  1. Single point of failure: a risk to an IT network if one part of the system brings down a larger part of the entire system.

  2. Heartbeat packet: a soft detection technology that monitors the health of inline appliances. Read the heartbeat packet blog here.

  3. Critical link: the connection between two or more network devices or appliances that if the connection fails then the network is disrupted.
