Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing high availability support at a bypass switch are disclosed. One method occurs at a bypass switch. The method includes determining that an inline tool associated with a bypass switch is unavailable. The method also includes determining whether the inline tool is required or optional. The method further includes in response to determining that the inline tool is required, disabling at least one link associated with the bypass switch so as to trigger a switchover involving a second bypass switch.
Abstract:
A method for validating a network packet broker is disclosed. The method includes configuring in software at least one of a on filter and a load balancer, processing a packet capture file containing data packets using the at least one filter and the load balancer such that data packets processed is output from an output port of the network packet broker. The method also includes analyzing, using a protocol analyzer, the data packets output by the output port of the network packet broker to validate the network packet broker.
