As networks evolve, the limitations of traditional, locked-in packet brokers become increasingly evident. Disaggregated packet brokers (DPBs) offer a more flexible, cost-effective alternative that better aligns with modern network demands. This blog explores the key reasons why DPBs are emerging as the preferred choice over proprietary packet brokers.Flexibility and Customization Disaggregated Packet Brokers: DPBs decouple software from hardware, allowing for customized netw

A comprehensive visibility architecture is essential for maintaining network security and performance. Integrating various monitoring tools and technologies ensures complete visibility across your network.  Best Practices Identify Monitoring Points: Why: Ensures strategic data capture.How: Map out your network to find critical points for monitoring.Implement Physical Taps: Why: Capture all traffic accurately.How: Deploy at strategic network points to monitor critical segments.Utilize Vi

Achieving comprehensive network visibility is critical for maintaining network security and optimizing performance. By leveraging a strategic combination of physical taps, virtual taps, SPAN ports, and network packet brokers (NPBs), you can ensure full coverage of all network traffic. Physical Taps Why: Physical taps provide an unaltered copy of network traffic, crucial for accurate monitoring. How: Position them at key network points to capture data fro

Exploring Options to Tap East-West Traffic in Virtualized NetworksMonitoring east-west traffic in virtualized networks is essential for detecting malicious lateral movement, analyzing network performance, and ensuring compliance with regulations. East-west traffic refers to data flows within an enclave, such as communication between virtual machines (VMs) in a data center, as opposed to north-south traffic that crosses the boundary of an enclave. Here, we will explore various methods to capture
