Oh no, the network is down! Help!

We`re back again at Interop Tokyo 2017, setup and running on SHOWNET!

Increasing Packet Capture Port Density with FMAD 40Gbps Packet Capture Systems and a regular switch. Using our 2x40G Packet Capture System and 2 separate switches you can achieve excellent cost per port capture numbers.

当社の100Gパケットキャプチャシステムについて、数多くのご意見・ご感想を頂いてまいりましたが、100Gbpsのキャプチャデータを当社が持続的に保存できるとは、ほとんどのお客様が考えておられない様です。最高の書き込み性能のピークを常に持続する為には多くの時間とリソースがかかるので、半信半疑になられるのも理解できます。　　当社のSSDについて、これから順を追ってご説明したいと思います。

We`ve received alot of feedback on our 100G packet capture system and most customers don't believe we can do sustained 100Gbps capture to storage! We understand the skepticism as its taken alot of time and resources to achieve sustained peek write performance. We explain a little on our SSD journey.

100G Ethernet is here and on the rise, yet what does 100G ethernet really mean? There`s an alphabetical soup of CFP, CXP, QSFP28, 10x10, 4x25, SR4, LR4, FEC, no FEC we go deep in this post and explain the combinations and whats actually being deployed in the field.

100Gイーサネットは現在増加中していますが、100Gイーサネットとは実際のところ何を意味しているのでしょう? CFP、CXP、QSFP28、10x10、4x25、SR4、LR4、FEC、非FEC...といった色々な名称が出てきます。 私たちはこの記事で掘り下げて、その組み合わせとこの分野で実際に展開されているものについて説明します。

Our 100Gbps Packet capture system is a Interop Tokyo 2016 Finalist in the Monitoring / Measurement / Test section!

Our FMADIO 100G packet capture system won Best of Show Grand Prize at Interop Tokyo 2016! A very big thank you to our strategic partner Glean Corporation and all our suppliers!

Its certainly taken longer than expected but we can finally announce our full 100G Packet capture system! Its an incredible combination of FPGA`s, SSD`s and slick 2U 48 bay chassis all for a modest ~ $100K USD.

思いのほか時間が掛かってしまいましたが、この度、遂に100Gパケットキャプチャシステムが完成したことをお知らせします! FPGA、SSD、スタイリッシュな2U 48ベイシャシーを組み合わせた画期的なシステムで、価格は1千万円以下とお求めやすくなっています。

As the final days of 2016 close, we take a look at the future of 10G to 100G Packet Capture in 2017

New features on our 20GbE packet capture system has been released, automatic Multicast join`s. Usually packet capture runs using a SPAN/Mirror port Layer 1 optical taps with the capture port being strictly Rx only. Yet sometimes this isn't enough and the capture port needs to manually join multiple sessions.

PCAP compression is essential for any serious packet capture work as it dramatically reduces the amount of storage the system uses. While compressing during capture is in the development pipeline, we now support realtime GZIP on download. Which is great for reducing download bandwidth, disk space and Wireshark has built in support for .pcap.gz too.

PCAP 圧縮はシステムが使うストレージ量を大幅に削減するので、あらゆる真剣なパケットキャプチャ作業に必須です。キャプチャ中の圧縮は開発中ですが、我々はダウンロードの際のリアルタイム GZIP をサポートするようになりました。これはダウンロード帯域幅の削減に効果的で、Wireshark にもビルトインで .pcap.gz のサポートがあります。

Packet Capture in the Cloud, e.g. AWS/EC2/VPC is a some what difficult subject, as the network topologies in the cloud vs traditional infrastructure are extremely different. The primary difference is the cloud operates at Layer 3 (IP endpoints) where as traditional inhouse networks operate at layer 1 & 2 (Physical cables + MAC endpoints). This means the traditional layer 2 SPAN/TAP approach no longer works in virtualized network environment, but we have a solution, FMADIO AWS Cloud Packet Capture!

Scripting is an essential part of the FMADIO packet capture systems as packet capture is only the first step in the process of understanding your network traffic. We have released a small (but growing) library of commands to help integrate into your environment.

Ever wondered what latency your switch is running at? Its an often asked question when characterizing SDN devices and also extremely important for everything HFT. It sounds like a simple question, and with our Microburst Analyzer its extremely simple to get answers.

あなたの使っているスイッチのレイテンシを知っていますか?これはSDN(software defined networking: ソフトウェア定義ネットワーク)の特徴を述べる時によく聞かれる質問であり、HFT(high frequency trading:高頻度取引)ではどこでも非常に重要なことです。簡単な質問のように見えますし、私達のマイクロバースト・アナライザーを使えば答えを得るのは非常に簡単です。

When you have 10`s or 100`s of real (or virtual) servers it becomes quite a task to monitor and manage what their all doing. FMADIO 10G, 20G, 40G and 100G packet capture systems now support SNMP using the standard net-snmp package so you can easily track and monitor your systems.
