TRAFFIC DEDUPLICATION (LICENSE REQUIRED)
X2-Series NPBs are capable of performing traffic deduplication. This feature is useful
when the same packets are captured from different tapping points and aggregated
in the packet broker.
This feature can be controlled via the "Configure Deduplication" option in the Traffic
management view. Clicking this button opens a new view, allowing the user to select
the interfaces on which the device will check for duplicate packets. Note that the
traffic identification will happen in the interface INGRESS, using the following fields:
◉
IPv4/6: Source and Destination Addresses;
◉
IPv4/6: Protocol/Next Header field;
◉
IPv4 Identification;
◉
TCP/UDP/SCTP: Source and Destination ports (or relative offset in fragmented
traffic);
◉
TCP/UDP/SCTP: Checksum.
