Description
The Gigamon GigaVUE-VM Visibility Fabric™ node
provides an intelligent filtering technology that allows specific virtual
machine (VM) traffic flows of interest to be selected, forwarded, and delivered
to the monitoring infrastructure (Application, Network, Security) tools,
effectively removing any traffic blind spots in the virtualized infrastructure.
As a VMware vSphere guest VM, the small
footprint GigaVUE-VM fabric node is installed without the need for special
software, invasive agents, kernel modules, or changes to the hypervisor. With
this solution, your organization can now achieve the same packet-level traffic
visibility between virtualized applications as is normally available between
discrete physical applications and servers. GigaVUE-FM (Fabric Manager),
Gigamon’s centralized management application, tightly integrates with VMware
vCenter to facilitate simplified bulk onboarding of the GigaVUE-VM fabric nodes
and configuration of the VM level traffic monitoring policies.
Leveraging vCenter APIs, GigaVUE-FM fabric
manager can track vMotion events across Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS)
and High Availability (HA) cluster environments, enabling visibility policies
to be tied to the monitored VMs and migrate with the VMs as they move across
physical hosts. This automation enables the synchronization of monitoring
policies, providing active visibility into an agile and dynamic Software-Defined
Data Center (SDDC).
GigaVUE-VM fabric nodes tightly integrate
with best-of-breed virtual switching including Virtual Standard Switch (vSS),
Virtual Distributed Switch (vDS) and Cisco Nexus 1000V. GigaVUE-VM also extends
traffic visibility to the VMs deployed on the VMware NSX-V network hypervisor,
a network virtualization platform that delivers the operational model of a
virtual machine for the network by creating virtual/overlay virtual networks
using VXLAN encapsulation protocols for traffic segmentation. To get complete
traffic visibility into these virtual/overlay networks, GigaSMART® features
like header stripping and Adaptive
Packet Filtering can be used to de-capsulate the traffic and provide tenant level
filtering. Having an end-to-end solution that provides traffic visibility into
both the physical and virtualized infrastructures empowers the infrastructure administrators
and operators with the insight needed to ensure service quality, security
compliancy, and maintain business continuity.
