ENDACE : Launches New NetFlow Generation Engine
08/02/2011 | 08:05am
Endace
(LSE: EDA), world leaders in network
monitoring and recording, today announced the launch of the latest
version of its NetFlow
generation engine and support for "Yet
Another Flowmeter" (YAF) on its entire range of Monitoring
and Recording Systems.
Endace NetFlow Generator 2.0 is built from the ground up by Endace
software engineers and breaks new ground in terms of performance and
accuracy for monitoring network traffic for planning, security and
analysis. The new engine has been designed specifically to cater to the
high traffic throughput requirements of 10Gb/s, 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s
networks and is fully NetFlow v5, v9 and IPFIX compliant.
Running on a 1U Series 3000 EndaceSensor, NetFlow Generator 2.0 is
capable of generating unsampled NetFlow from 30Gb/s of IPv4 and/or IPv6
traffic with 100 percent accuracy. This extraordinary performance puts
the Endace NetFlow Generator in a class of its own.
"The shift to 10Gb/s networking and the need for greater levels of
accuracy is driving the shift towards dedicated NetFlow sensors," said
Neil Livingston, chief product officer at Endace. "NetFlow is an
essential feed to a range of different monitoring and security
applications. By deploying Endace NetFlow as one of the features on a
multi-function EndaceProbe or EndaceSensor, organizations can get a very
cost-effective and highly accurate solution to the problem of NetFlow
generation."
Endace NetFlow Generator is a core feature of the Endace Application
Suite, which is delivered standard with every Endace System. The
Application Suite comprises a suite of applications that address the
core monitoring and security needs of every high-speed network.
Recognizing that federal organizations have a requirement to use
specific tools, Endace is also announcing support for YAF on its entire
range of Systems. Using the exact same performance tests as those used
for the Endace NetFlow engine, YAF has been proven to deliver 3.2Gb/s of
throughput on the same 1U EndaceSensor. With 100 percent accuracy, this
throughput performance makes Endace Systems the best performing platform
for running YAF.
