Network Packet Brokers are dedicated appliances that elaborate and forward network traffic to monitoring and security tools. The packet broker filters, aggregates, load balance collected traffic information from network links and distributes it to its appropriate network monitoring tools. By having advanced filtering capabilities, an NPB can help provide better data performance, tighter security, and a faster way to determine the root cause of any issues by using advanced application intelligence.
In some cases, filtering and aggregating network traffic is not enough to efficiently use monitoring and security tools: Network Operators need NPBs capable to deliver advanced features like header stripping, packet slicing, inner parameters filtering and load balancing, on the same time assuring top performances.
