Advanced Aggregators
Aggregators are devices designed to increase efficiency and port utilization of network packet brokers. They are commonly used at the network edge or in TOR applications where port utilization tends to be low. Aggregators are also capable of pre-filtering traffic prior to sending out to Network Packet Broker’s for advanced filtering or taking the place of packet brokers in applications where only L2-L4 filtering is required. Aggregators improve ROI by reducing the total cost of a network visibility fabric and increasing the efficiency of existing infrastructure.
