Gigamon Announces
the Release of GigaVUE-MP a Three-in-One Data-Access Solution
GigaVUE-MP
Data-Access Solution aggregates, multiplexes,
and filters, providing data access for any out-of-band
sniffer, transaction monitor, IDS, recorder or other tool
while logically mapping packets to individual tools.San
Jose, CA – Gigamon Systems, manufacturer of enterprise
network infrastructure for out-of-band monitoring, releases
GigaVUE-MP, a new line of data-access switches for Òout-of-bandÓ
security, performance, and transaction monitoring of mission-critical
enterprise networks.
GigaVUE-MP allows dynamic access to traffic anywhere in
the enterprise network. GigaVUE-MP can resolve contention
for SPAN ports between multiple tools by multiplexing
the traffic from multiple data sources. It saves on tool
budgets by aggregating streams from multiple sources thus
reducing the number of tools customers need to deploy
while providing a Òbig pipeÓ view of EtherChannel links
or any parallel links in a redundantly meshed network.
GigaVUE-MP intelligently directs critical data to each
analysis tool such as sniffers, IDS’s, VoIP analyzers,
so that each tool gets a uniquely customized view. This
allows customers to resolve the problem of Òtoo many tools,
not enough SPAN portsÓ and give each tool only the data
it needs.
Some of the key features and benefits of GigaVUE-MP are:
Hardware filters map traffic to each tool – any data to
any tool
Aggregate multiple links to single tools
Multiplex single links to multiple tools
Unobtrusive tool access - Do moves, adds, and changes
at any convenient time.
At its initial product launch at Interop Las Vegas 2005,
GigaVUE-MP was picked by the InteropNet engineers as the
technology-of-choice to provide comprehensive network-view
data access. Since then, Gigamon, with their GigaVUE family
of flagship products, has made a mark in the networking
community reaching the million dollar sales in a short
6 months.
Now at Interop NY in December, Gigamon
has been selected as the Official Out-of-Band Data-Access
Provider. After seeing a return performance, Glenn Evans,
Chief Network Engineer of the InteropNet commented, ÒBy
utilising the Gigamon System in the early stages of the
InteropNet buildout, we gave the engineering team a powerful
tool to implement a filtered instrumentation system throughout
the network by multiplexing the numerous data feeds into
a variety of vendor tools. This filtering capability enables
the tools to see only the data that is relevant to them
and resolves all conflicts in gaining data access. This
makes it easier for the engineering staff to diagnose
issues if and when they occur.Ó According to Evans, ÒGigamon
has become an essential piece of the networking management
and instrumentation puzzle.Ó
About Gigamon Systems
Gigamon Systems’ GigaVUE-MP Data-Access Switches filter,
aggregate, and multiplex critical data from multiple links
to multiple Òout-of-bandÓ monitoring tools including sniffers,
IDS’s, VoIP analyzers, transaction and application performance
monitors, and forensic recorders. GigaVUE-MP significantly
reduces capital, operational expenditures, and improves
uptime by enabling more flexible network security, monitoring,
and troubleshooting while using fewer and less intrusive
tools.
