Abstract:
Presented herein is an exemplified system and method that provides visibility, for traffic analytics, into secured encapsulated packet (e.g., secure VXLAN-GPE packet, a secure metadata-GPE packet or other GPE standards). The exemplified system and method facilitate encryption of traffic in a granular manner that also facilitate the monitoring of said secure traffic in a fabric network in an end-to-end manner throughout the network. Such monitoring can be beneficially used for analytics, performance analysis, and network debugging/troubleshooting.
