Napatech TO Demonstrate How To Build 10G IPS
April 2010 by Marc Jacob
Napatech released a new whitepaper on how a Universal Network Appliance approach can be used to develop high-performance Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS). At the upcoming Interop Las Vegas and Infosecurity events, Napatech will show a 10 Gbps IPS demonstration based on this approach.
The development of network appliances based on standard PC servers and Intelligent Real-time Network Analysis adapters is gaining momentum as it promises to reduce cost, risk and time-to-market for OEM network appliance manufacturers, while at the same time providing a high performance platform.
The Napatech demonstration is based on a standard PC server using Napatech NT20E 2x10 Gbps In-line adapters for reception, pre-processing and re-transmission of Ethernet frames. A separate Napatech NT20E will be used for full wire-speed 10 Gbps traffic generation.
