Aggregation

The EXA48200 is able to receive traffic from a single or multiple 1/10/40 or 100 Gbps link(s) via the monitoring ports of an inline tapping device. The incoming traffic can be further aggregated to a single or multiple outputs to connect analyzers and monitoring tools as required. The example below shows how EXA48200 aggregates upstream and downstream traffic of a 100 Gbit link to a single output port for more economical usage of connected traffic probes/analytics systems.

By utilizing the various filtering capabilities of the EXA48200 the user is able to further reduce traffic volume that needs to be processed, thus enabling quicker and more accurate analysis and troubleshooting.

Superior filtering capabilities

The advanced Packetmaster EXA48200 supports up to 16000 parallel running filters. These filters can be used to redirect a selected part of the incoming traffic to a low bandwidth monitoring tool.

Filtering parameters includes:

Besides standard OSI L2 to L4, the EXA48200 also supports filtering inside tunnels like GTP, VXLAN or GRE. By default, filtering is done at ingress but can be easily extended to egress as well as loopback ports allowing maximum flexibility to forward the right traffic to the right probing/analyzer system.

State-of-the-art tunnel removal and inside tunnel filtering

The EXA48200 supports the termination of various tunnels such as:

• ERSPAN II and III
• GRE
• MPLS over UDP
• GTP
• VXLAN
• CFP

Every port of the EXA48200 supports an independent MAC and IP setup. Thus, the EXA48200 can be used as an active tunnel end-point. Besides tunnel termination, it also allows filtering inside tunnels. This superior functionality makes the EXA48200 perfectly suited for any modern overlay network.

GRE encapsulation function

To transport filtered packets from site A to site B over a routed Layer 3 network, the EXA48200 supports a GRE encapsulation function.

Session-aware load-balancing

The Cubro EXA48200 supports Session-aware load-balancing that allows every packet belonging to the same conversation/flow to be sent to the same physical output port within a load-balancing group.

Deduplication

The Cubro EXA48200 offers a Deduplication function to eliminate duplicated packets and protect monitoring equipment from getting overloaded.

Regex Filtering

The Regex filter function of the EXA48200 is the perfect solution to find packets that can not be found by using usual L2 to L4 packet parameters like IP Address, Protocol or UDP/TCP port number.

IP Reassembly function

IP fragmentation breaks packets into smaller pieces (fragments), therefore, the resulting pieces can pass through a link with a smaller maximum transmission unit (MTU) than the original packet size. The fragments are reassembled by the receiving host. Fragmentation might cause troubles for monitoring tools or will need additional processing resources of the tool to reassemble the fragments. The EXA48200 keeps monitoring tools clear by providing an easy-to-use reassembly function.

The EXA48200 features an extremely easy to use graphical way of operation. The innovative and logical WebUI allows the user to create a backup, setup new users, check port link status/statistics or define a powerful filtering scenario which will help to do the job quickly.

Filters can also be created using Microsoft® Excel and uploaded to the EXA48200.
