Key Features

Content Aware Director:



Provides intelligent packet redirection capability where rules specify which packets are directed to the host system

and which packets are directed to the other port (Bypass)



Provides intelligent packet redirection capability where all packets are directed to the other port (Bypassed) and

rules that specify which packets are copied to the host system (TAP)



Provides intelligent packet filtering / drop capability where rules specify which packets are directed to the host or

dropped



Provides redirection rules that can be defined using source IP/ destination IP / Source Port / Destination Port /

VLAN tuples



Redirection and packet filtering / drop are performed by the hardware itself in wire speed and do not require any

software and CPU host system power processing



Intelligent redirect mechanism is controllable via software



Intelligent routing mechanism is controllable via software
