Deep Buffer Packet Broker
NPB-Ie is part of the CGS Network Visibility portfolio that optimizes cyber security and performance monitoring applications by delivering the required data in the right volume and in the correct format. CGS’s disaggregation approach across its entire portfolio, revolutionizes the network visibility market with its Unified Visibility Architecture (UVA) that streamlines deployment of the CGS Software Defined Packet Broker on the most modern, scalable and powerful open switches and network appliances, resulting in superior performance and scalability, wider deployment options, enhanced productivity and compelling TCO.
Equipped with deep buffers of 6GB, NPB-Ie resolves the challenge of packet loss in cases of microbursts, when a significant number of queued packets are delivered within an extremely short time. Loss of even one network packet may result in the loss of the entire session, which could be the source of the cyber security risk or performance issue. NPB-Ie with buffers 250X-750X larger than competitor packet broker buffers, eliminates the business and operation risks resulting from buffer overflow.
