The adoption of 4G wireless telecommunications technologies is bringing about fundamental changes to how telecoms networks are architected, deployed, operated and monitored.
We kick-off the New Year with a guide to the realities of large-scale network traffic capture. VSS Monitoring Sales Engineer Joe Collins takes you through the 10 critical questions to ask your traffic capture or TAP vendor. The key to complete, end-to-end network visibility for centralized monitoring is knowing the details of how the copy of traffic captured gets to your monitoring tools. How would your vendor rate?
This month's podcast focuses on Time Stamping in VSS Distributed TAPs. This unique feature enables users to apply a time stamp on a packet as it enters the TAP - before aggregation and filtering are applied. This is a critical feature for time-sensitive environments, as it allows monitoring tools to take advantage of multi-point, optimized views of traffic without concern over latency.
This month's podcast covers the basics of deploying an IDS in a network gateway and how a distributed traffic capture tool can enhance the effectiveness, manageability and scalability of a security or monitoring implementation.
This month's episode is centered on vStack+™, VSS Monitoring intelligent stacking technology that allows its traffic capture tools to interconnect to form redundant, logically synced meshes that can be managed from any tool in the system.
This month's podcast focuses on Session-Aware Load Balancing (L2-4), a highly valuable feature available in our Distributed TAP family. Account Support Engineer Marc Ghilarducci hosts this episode, in which he describes how Session-Aware Load Balancing in a TAP functions (and how it differs from filtering), as well as its application and benefits.
For users facing the problem of oversubscription of their monitor tool or need to monitor a 10 GigE network with multiple Gigabit interfaces, this is not an episode to be missed!
