XX-Series Network Traffic Aggregators

Aggregation, Replication, Load Balancing, Filtering

What is a Network Traffic Aggregator?

A Network Traffic Aggregator is an entry level Network Packet Broker (NPB) that optimizes traffic flow between TAP and SPAN connections and network monitoring, and security tools. By maintaining a many-to-many (M:M) port mapping of network ports to monitoring ports, they can direct network traffic efficiently. Filters can be applied to optimize bandwidth usage on the network, and load on connected tools, increasing their performance.

Network Traffic Aggregators help you optimize the data flow. They forward data from many inputs to one or several tools for further optimization or analysis. By pre-aggregating network traffic, port utilization on Advanced Network Packet Brokers also becomes more efficient, resulting in fewer consumed ports on the devices.

Why do you need an XX-Series Network Traffic Aggregator?

The Profitap XX-Series aggregates traffic coming from TAPs and SPAN connections throughout the network and forwards this data as an optimized stream of data to connected tools. This dramatically reduces the load on connected security and monitoring tools and makes for easy and flexible traffic management and network management.

Profitap XX-Series are designed for aggregation, filtering, and routing of multiple 1/10/25/40/100/400G inputs, used in high sustained bandwidth port monitoring and analysis scenarios. They can be used as standalone or with Profitap X2 and X3 series Network Packet Brokers for advanced traffic intelligence, such as timestamping, deduplication, SSL/TLS decryption, and more.

XX-Series traffic aggregators are best suited as pre-aggregation and traffic distribution solutions, ensuring operational flexibility and optimized port consumption on connected tools.
