Niagara Network Packet Brokers
What is a Network Packet Broker?
A Network Packet Broker (NPB) is an active device that directs selected raw data packets from network interfaces (typically via SPAN or tap points) to specific network service and monitoring devices, and performance management and security applications.
What Exactly Does a Network Packet Broker Do?
Niagara’s NPB solutions perform a range of crucial functionalities for all types of networks, even those with extremely complex architectures and that is resource-intensive including:
- Total Network Visibility - Identifying known, suspicious, and unknown traffic passing through the network.
- Network robustness - Ensuring data loss prevention and advanced filtering, as well as high availability, stripping, and other special-purpose packet capabilities.
- Network management - Not just knowing how to monitor network traffic, but also knowing what to do with each type of traffic: where to pass known (authorized) data types, and how to handle suspicious and unknown traffic.
