Hi Bill,

will you explain R-SPAN part?

Hi Bill,
we already have Analytics/Purview feeded from our core S-Series. We can see all traffic which is routed or switched by the cores. But what to do with traffic which only traverses the Datacenter ToR-Switches (X670-G2) f.e. between the servers or betweeen hypervisor or storage in same subnet? IIRC Analytics would only be able to detect this traffic if I could send nMirror and netflow from ToR-Switch towards Analytics Appliance or if I mirror everything. But wouldn't be mirroring full ToR-switch traffic to a sensor be too much?

HTW,

The X670-G2 does not support the creation of IPFIX records. This requires specific hardware and is only supported in X460-G1 and X460-G2 and some blades on the BD8800 and BDX-8. In order to accomplish what you outline your best bet is to purchase the Analytics Bundle that includes the Sensor and Flow Licenses. Please contact you sales teams for more information.

Hi,
we plan to implement some X670-G2 as Datacenter Switches. Does anything speak against using them as Purview / Analytics sensor? Connected to this switch are four Hypervisors with 100 -200 VMs and independent servers. Is X670-G2 CPU strong enough to manage export flow and n-mirror data to Purview aplliance?
