GigaVUE-VM -- a native VMware solution that acquires network traffic from all VMs in a VMware environment while supporting vMotion -- enables security and monitoring tools to have full visibility into the virtual environment.

That lets you acquire VM traffic flows of interest and forward selected traffic to the GigaSECURE^® Security Delivery Platform located in your physical data center.

For VMware ESX environments, the solution deploys a lightweight virtual machine without the need for special software, kernel modules or changes to the hypervisor.

• Using vCenter APIs, GigaVUE-FM can then track vMotion events across distributed resource scheduler (DRS) and high-availability (HA) cluster environments. That lets you tie visibility policies to the monitored VMs and migrate them with the VMs as they move across physical hosts.
• The GigaVUE-VM solution also supports multiple vSwitch integration options, including vSphere Standard Switch (vSS) and vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS).

For NSX environments, your SecOps teams can automate the acquisition and forwarding of east-west virtual traffic to security and monitoring tools. The NSX network virtualization platform and distributed service insertion framework lets you:

• Automate the deployment of the GigaVUE-VM, while also enabling dynamic provisioning of visibility traffic policies within your software defined data center (SDDC)
• Auto-update this service and traffic policies as new tenants come onboard or as existing tenants' security groups dynamically scale
