IOTA 10 CORE+
Traffic capture and analysis for core networks
IOTA 10 CORE+ is a high-speed packet capture and analysis solution for core networks, large branches, and data centers. Designed for performance-critical environments, it empowers network engineers to rapidly identify, analyze, and resolve performance issues, application bottlenecks, and security risks, without compromising capture fidelity.
Powered by FPGA hardware, IOTA 10 CORE+ delivers true 10 Gbps full-duplex line-rate capture, advanced hardware timestamping (GPS, PPS, NTP, PTPv2), and flexible in-line or out-of-band deployment.
Deep visibility without compromise
With IOTA 10 CORE+, you can continuously capture network traffic and extract detailed real-time and historical insights into critical applications and data flows.
By combining full packet capture with advanced metadata extraction, IOTA helps you:
-
- Baseline network behavior
- Establish normal performance patterns and detect anomalies faster by comparing against real-world reference data.
-
- Spot performance issues
- Diagnose latency, throughput degradation, packet loss, and retransmissions at a glance.
-
- Analyze application behavior
- Monitor and track over 3,000 applications and protocols, including encrypted and modern enterprise traffic.
-
- Maintain network integrity
- Quickly identify security gaps, misconfigurations, and irregular protocol usage.
Complete network observability at 10 Gbps
- Instantly access networking KPIs to understand performance across your entire infrastructure.
- Sustained traffic capture and analysis up to 10 Gbps full-duplex without packet loss, ensuring integrity and actionable insights.
- Understand protocol behavior, application flows, and network usage to support IT and security management.
Accelerate issue resolution & reduce operational risk
- Establish a proactive network baseline to detect anomalies early and reduce business disruptions.
- Rapid root cause identification empowers teams to respond faster, protecting productivity and customer experience.
- Enable your team to act quickly with accurate, filtered data. No more guesswork or blind spots.
Actionable traffic intelligence
- Leverage detailed flow views and custom queries to monitor your critical assets and services.
- Export high-fidelity, pre-filtered PCAPs to support audits, forensics, and regulatory needs.
Efficient capture & scalable retention
-
- Ring buffer recording
- Continuously record traffic in a loop to prevent data loss and ensure the most recent data is always available.
-
- In-line or out-of-band capture
- IOTA 10 CORE+ is optimized for modern hybrid networks and works standalone, with network TAPs, and with Network Packet Brokers (NPBs).
-
- Capture efficiency controls
- Apply filters or capture metadata-only to reduce data volumes by up to 90% compared to raw PCAP files, while retaining critical packet-level intelligence.
-
- Scalable storage architecture
- Choose the SSD capacity that matches your forensic, compliance, or performance analysis requirements.
Designed for rapid troubleshooting
-
- Keep an eye on your network
- Monitor hosts, top talkers, latency, TCP, UDP, IPv4, IPv6, VLAN, DNS and many more at a glance, using a premade set of comprehensive dashboards.
-
- Monitor network performance
- Keep a close eye on the most essential performance metrics, retransmissions, packet loss, latency, throughput, availability, connectivity and more.
-
- Track down security flaws and protocol/application usage
- Full visibility over 3000+ applications and protocols (DNS, HTTP, SSH, Office 365, Skype, Whatsapp, Netflix, etc.)
-
- Remote monitoring
- Fully managed over HTTPS and with built-in VPN, it offers easy deployment and usage in any network topology.
-
- Quick search database
- Explore long-term dataset accumulated over days, weeks or months.
-
- Highly efficient metadata collection
- Up to 100 KPIs are extracted from packets, TCP/UDP flow and flow behavior. Flow metadata can reduce the volume of data by 90% compared to the original PCAP trace.
-
- Advanced hardware timestamping
- Ensure high-precision, consistent packet timestamping with GPS, PPS, and PTPv2 time synchronization.
-
- 3 TB, 15 TB, or 30 TB storage
- PCAP collection, metadata database and system are stored on a high-performance SSD.
-
- Removable storage
- For high security environments, simplified evidence handling, and long-term retention.
