FlowLine 500/500-F
The GigaFin FlowLine 500/500-F is a high performance appliance providing increased visibility into network flows with the capability of immediate remediation and traffic management.
- The in-line transparent mode of deployment, low power consumption and Gigabit throughput make it easy to deploy within network infrastructure to complement existing network equipment.
- NetFlow monitoring provides administrators with effective tools to identify bandwidth abuse and policy violations, including detection and control of several P2P applications.
- Access control and traffic management polices give the ability to improve network performance.
- Denial-of-Service prevention allows greater resilience to services and protects from large scale attacks.
The GigaFin FlowLine 500/500-F comes with integrated hardware bypass for improved network up-time even in cases of power and hardware failure, an essential feature of in-line monitoring devices*.
*Integrated hardware bypass of FlowLine 500-F does not support power-failure hardware bypass.
