The 32*100G Traffic Aggregation and Distribution System is a high-capacity Network Packet Broker (NPB) designed for network traffic aggregation, replication, filtering, classification, and distribution in high-bandwidth Ethernet environments.
The system allows network interfaces to be flexibly configured for traffic input and output. Traffic collected from multiple network links can be aggregated and then selectively forwarded to packet capture systems, network monitoring platforms, security appliances, protocol analyzers, and other visibility tools.
Based on hardware traffic-processing architecture, the system supports functions such as full-traffic aggregation, one-to-many traffic replication, packet filtering, five-tuple classification, feature-field matching, load-balanced distribution, uplink/downlink separation, and traffic statistics.
Multiple management methods, including CLI, Web, and SNMP, are available for system configuration and monitoring. Multi-device cascading and collaborative management are also supported for larger network visibility deployments.
The system collects traffic from multiple network links and processes it before forwarding the required traffic to monitoring or analysis tools. It supports traffic aggregation, replication, filtering, classification, load balancing, and distribution, helping build centralized network visibility infrastructure.
A standard Ethernet switch is primarily used to forward production traffic between network devices. A Network Packet Broker is designed mainly for traffic visibility and monitoring. It can aggregate, copy, filter, classify, and distribute network traffic to monitoring, security, packet capture, and analysis platforms without being used as the primary production switching device.
