Overview

The Niagara 4232-4XL is a 4 Port 40 Gigabit, 32 Port 10 Gigabit Hardware Packet Master for network analysis and monitoring applications. The Packet Master has flexible and extensive configuration options which enable it to be tailored to customize the way traffic is managed. The system can support L2-L4 packets, IPv6 and IPv4 traffic, MPLS packets and provides the ability to customize keys for distribution. The 4 Ports supports 40G QSFP media while the 32 ports support 1 gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet with SFP and SFP+ support including multi mode, single mode and extended mode fiber. The Packet Master provides sophisticated features for flexible traffic management including mirroring to multiple ports, aggregation of multiple ports to a single port, and an extensive filtering engine. There are several session based load balancing methodologies supported which enable traffic to be distributed according to any configured output of ports and the distributing keys can be defined as follows:

• VLAN ID
• IP-Src, IP-Dst
• MAC-Src, MAC-Dst
• TCP-Port
• UDP-Port
• User Defined Byte (UDB) - the key for distribution is configurable
