Description

Interface Masters NIAGARA 3213 - Link Aggregation Active TAP System with Passive TAP for 10 Gigabit Ethernet Simple Type: Network Hub / Switch / Router Niagara 3213 is a 10 Gigabit Link aggregation TAP system capable of fully monitoring a network segment at 10 Gigabit speeds. The Niagara 3213 TAP system consists of one 10 Gb Link Aggregation TAP segment which possesses Active TAP capabilities and a Passive TAP monitoring Port for non-intrusive full duplex 10G network monitoring even in absence of power. The unit possesses management functionality that can be utilized and managed via an extensive web GUI or CLI which enables flexibility and multiple configurations. The Niagara 3213 is designed to integrate with Network Monitoring appliances, Analytics, probes, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and logging tools, Intrusion Detection Systems and Central Office applications. The active TAP feature enables bi-directional traffic to be aggregated and mirrored to one or two appliance ports or uni-directional traffic to be split and sent to the two appliance ports. The active TAP segment can support multiple TAP methodologies and Multi-Mode fiber (SR) and Single-Mode fiber (LR) media configuration as well as LR to SR media conversion. The system architecture is designed for flexibility, enabling Niagara 3213 to operate in various modes including Split TAP, aggregation and proactive packet injection. The Niagara 3213 10Gigabit Link Aggregation TAP is managed by a 64-bit MIPS controller which supports a wide variety of control and management capabilities. The system provides flexible and intuitive CLI and GUI management features including secure web UI via an HTTPS connection, secure shell (SSH), SNMP, e-mail notification for special events, and bypass method configuration and passive TAP set-up and management. An authentication client capable of interfacing with authentication servers like TACACS+ and Radius will be supported. In addition, the system possesses Syslog support, enabling consolidation of log data from various systems into a central repository. This feature provides management, traceability and security auditing across a wide variety of devices and receivers on multiple platforms. Download the datasheet (PDF)
