Introduction
Net.Optics.2xN.10/100.In-Line.SpyderSwitches.enhance.LAN.visibility.by.
providing.access.across.multiple.10/100BaseT.network.links.for.one.or.two.
distributed.analyzers ..The.physical.layer.connections.through.the.Spyder-
Switch eliminate the need to reconnect and reconfigure analyzers for each new
monitoring task. This flexibility instantly improves ease of use and return on
investment .
The.2xN.SpyderSwitch.supports.simultaneous.passive.monitoring.of.any.two.
links.connected.to.the.SpyderSwitch,.each.with.a.separate.distributed.ana-
lyzer ..Monitored.links.can.be.selected.statically,.for.automatic.roaming,.or.for.
a.custom.monitoring.pattern.with.PortRover.management.software ..Models.
with.2x8.and.2x16.port.densities.are.available .
Net.Optics’.pioneering.Zero.Delay.Technology.ensures.that.any.loss.of.power.
to the Tap is transparent to the network, and does not affect the flow of traffic
through.the.Tap.–.eliminating.packet.delay.and.loss.as.potential.security.is-
sues .
Monitoring Control
For.spot-checking.and.long-term.monitoring,.the.monitored.links.can.be.
set.and.easily.changed.with.a.simple.click.in.the.PortRover.interface ..When.
greater.coverage.is.needed,.an.automatic.mode.continuously.scans.all.ports,.
monitoring each port for a configurable time period. Network administrators
can.have.complete.control.over.monitoring.activities.by.creating.and.saving.
custom.monitoring.patterns.with.PortRover.management.software .
Security and Visibility
Monitoring devices connected to the SpyderSwitch see all full-duplex traffic
as.if.it.were.in-line,.including.Layer.1.and.Layer.2.errors ..Since.IP.addresses.
are.not.required.for.the.SpyderSwitch.and.connected.devices,.they.are.isolated.
from.the.network,.dramatically.reducing.their.exposure.to.attacks .
Reliability
For.extra.uptime.protection,.Net.Optics.SpyderSwitches.offer.redundant.
power.connections ..Should.the.primary.power.source.fail,.the.SpyderSwitch.
automatically.switches.to.the.backup.power.source ..Power.LEDs.on.the.front.
of.the.SpyderSwitch.indicate.the.current.power.source .
