    摘要: A method of monitoring virtualized network includes receiving information regarding the virtualized network, wherein the information is received at a port of a network switch appliance, receiving a packet at a network port of the network switch appliance, and using the received information to determine whether to process the packet according to a first packet processing scheme or a second packet processing scheme, wherein the first packet processing scheme involves performing header stripping, and performing packet transmission to one of a plurality of instrument ports at the network switch appliance after the header stripping, each of the instrument ports configured for communicatively coupling to a network monitoring instrument, and wherein the second packet processing scheme involves performing packet transmission to one of the plurality of instrument ports at the network switch appliance without performing any header stripping.

    摘要: A switch appliance includes a first network port for communication with a first node, where the first network port is configured to receive a packet, and a second network port for communication with a second node. The switch appliance further includes a first instrument port for communication with a first inline tool, a buffer, and a processing unit coupled to the first network port, the second network port, the first instrument port and the buffer. The processing unit is configured to determine whether a packet processing state has been set as an inline-tool processing state or a bypass state, and is configured to pass the packet to the second network port for transmission to the second node, and to store a copy of the packet in the buffer, if the packet processing state has not been set as the inline-tool processing state nor the bypass state.
