Distributed Traffic Capture Systems
Also referred to as Distributed Taps, passive distributed traffic capture systems (DTCS) are intelligent traffic capture tools designed to passively tap or receive unidirectional inputs from multiple networks and forward the traffic, as selected by the user, to multiple independent monitor ports. These Distributed Taps feature Selective Aggregation, Hardware-Based Filtering, Session-Aware Load Balancing, remote management,
intelligent stacking and complete configuration flexibility. |
|
Traditional Taps
Traditional Taps are low port density taps that feature basic full-duplex tapping and static aggregation and replication of network traffic. They are passive (failsafe) hardware devices that provide complete traffic visibility. Product options are available to accommodate inline access as well as SPAN/unidirectional inputs.

Active Distributed Traffic Capture Systems
Active DTCS are intelligent traffic redirection tools designed to actively tap multiple networks and direct the traffic, as selected by the user, to multiple independent monitor port pairs. These Inline Load Balancers feature Selective Aggregation, Hardware-based Filtering, Session-aware Load Balancing, Inline Tool bypass, Policy-based Triggering, remote management, intelligent stacking, high availability, and complete configuration flexibility.
