GigaSMART
Intelligence to optimize and manage Layer 2–7 network traffic.
Apply Application and Traffic Intelligence to Your Network
GigaSMART® applications expand the capabilities in the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline to improve network visibility, traffic handling, and tool efficiency. Solutions include:
- Traffic Intelligence for streamlining traffic
- Application Intelligence to filter and extract app metadata
- Subscriber Intelligence for advanced 5G networks
- Security Intelligence for SSL/TLS decryption
Combine or service-chain a range of GigaSMART applications to achieve exactly the results you want.
Subscription-based GigaSMART applications are available for GigaVUE® Visibility Appliances without port- or card-based restrictions. Select GigaSMART applications are also available with the GigaVUE Cloud Suites for public and private cloud.
USE CASE BRIEF
Keep networks responsive and secure.
Benefits
Identify, Filter, & Enrich App Data
Use Application Intelligence to automatically discover applications, generate metadata attributes, and forward them to the appropriate tools.
Reduce Unnecessary Processing
Utilize Advanced Flow Slicing to granularly select and drop superfluous packet content to reduce traffic sent to tools by over 60 percent.
Maintain Strong Security Posture
Apply SSL/TLS Decryption to decrypt traffic with the latest cipher suites and share with tools to expose malware hiding in encrypted sessions.
GigaSMART, a Critical Component of the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline
Essential to transform data, provide contextual insights, and keep data secure
GigaSMART Features
GigaSMART® offers several essential traffic intelligence services required for deep observability into infrastructure blind spots.
NetFlow Generation
Delivers basic Layer 2–4 network traffic data to analysis tools.
Source Port Labeling
Provides context to packets and identifies behaviors and threats based on network location.
Adaptive Packet Filtering
Identifies patterns across any part of the network packet, including the packet payload.
De-duplication
Targets, identifies, and eliminates duplicate packets, blocking unnecessary duplication and sending optimized flows.
Packet Slicing
Truncates packets while preserving the protocol headers required for network analysis.
Advanced Load Balancing
Divides and distributes traffic among multiple tools based on a variety of data points.
Advanced Flow Slicing
Reduces bandwidth usage by slicing payloads and packets from long data flows.
Masking
Provides customizable data protection by overwriting specific packet fields with a set pattern.
Tunneling
Alleviates blindness of business-critical traffic at remote sites, virtualized data centers, or in the public or private cloud.
Application Visualization
Provides a complete view of the applications running on your network.
Application Filtering Intelligence
Extends Layer 7 visibility to thousands of common and proprietary applications.
Application Metadata Intelligence
Provides application visibility to identify performance and quality issues, and potential security risks.
GTP Correlation
Enables mobile service providers to monitor subscriber data in GPRS Tunneling Protocol tunnels.
5G Correlation
Forwards subscriber sessions to specific tools by filtering on subscriber, user device, RAN, or network slice IDs.
FlowVUE Flow Sampling
Provides subscriber IP-based flow sampling.
SIP/RTP Correlation
Enables enterprises and service providers to monitor VoIP traffic.
SSL/TLS Decryption
Creates a secure channel between the server and the end user's computer or other devices as they exchange information.
