The GigaVUE® 420 is a modular packet-aware Data Access Switch supporting 10/100/1000 & 10Gig Ethernet. GigaVUE-420 aggregates, multicasts, filters, & divides traffic flows across multiple passive monitoring tools. It is a purposebuilt hardware switch capable of full line rate performance and transfer latency of only 6 μsec. Nearly any number of traffic sources may be aggregated, filtered, & then distributed to one or more monitoring tools at any speed. Hardware filters based on any element in the 126-byte header may be enabled to eliminate unwanted packets. The system is managed remotely by telnet or SSH2 & authenticated with TACAC+ or RADIUS.
