2 Cnfiguring Delivery Prts Cnfiguring Filters t Match Netwrk Traffic Cnclusin Fr Mre Infrmatin What Yu Will Learn This dcument prvides a quick-start cnfiguratin guide fr implementing the Cisc Nexus Data Brker embedded slutin, which is an n-switch deplyment ptin fr netwrk traffic visibility using a single Cisc Nexus 3000 Series Switch r Cisc Nexus 9300 platfrm switch fr test access pint (TAP) and Cisc Switched Prt Analyzer (SPAN) aggregatin. This dcument includes the steps fr cnfiguring: Cisc Plug-in fr OpenFlw n the Cisc Nexus 3000 Series and Cisc Nexus 9300 platfrm switches Cisc Nexus Data Brker applicatin n the Cisc Nexus 3000 Series and Cisc Nexus 9300 platfrm switches Cisc NX-API cnfiguratin n the Cisc Nexus 3000 and Cisc Nexus 9300 Series Switches Disclaimer: This dcument des nt replace the cnfiguratin guide published fr the prducts. Fr a list f applicable cnfiguratin guides, please see the Fr Mre Infrmatin sectin at the end f this dcument. Cisc Nexus Data Brker Slutin Overview The Cisc Nexus Data Brker replaces a purpse-built matrix netwrk with ne r mre Cisc Nexus 3000 r 9000 Series Switches fr netwrk TAP and SPAN aggregatin. The traffic is tapped int this bank f Cisc Nexus 3000 r 9000 Series Switches in the same manner as in a matrix netwrk. Hwever, with the Cisc Nexus Data Brker applicatin, traffic can be filtered and frwarded t the right tls. The filtering and frwarding rules can change dynamically n the basis f business lgic, allwing unique traffic patterns t flw directly t the tls in real time. In additin, because the Cisc Nexus Data Brker supprts cmmn prgrammable interfaces such as Java and representatinal state transfer (REST), netwrk peratrs can write applicatins t detect and capture unique traffic, clsing any cverage gaps. Custmers wh want t run Cisc Nexus Data Brker using a single Cisc Nexus 3000 Series r Cisc Nexus 9300 platfrm switch in their netwrk have the ptin t run Cisc Nexus Data Brker in the Linux cntainer f the switch itself using embedded mde. Cisc Nexus Data Brker embedded sftware is distributed as an pen virtual appliance (OVA) that can be deplyed in the Cisc Nexus switch s Linux cntainer. All features f Cisc Nexus Data Brker are available in this ptin as well except: Clustering and high availability Page Cisc and/r its affiliates. All rights reserved.

3 Management fr multiple switches fr netwrk TAP r SPAN aggregatin Table 1 summarizes the main features and functins available with the Cisc Nexus Data Brker embedded slutin. Table 1 Main Features Feature Supprt fr a variety f prt capacities Supprt fr TAP and SPAN aggregatin Supprt fr IEEE Q-in-Q t tag input surce TAP and SPAN prt* Symmetric hashing r symmetric lad balancing* Rules fr matching mnitred traffic Layer 7 mnitring fr HTTP traffic* Multiprtcl Label Switching (MPLS) label stripping* Traffic replicatin and frwarding Time stamping** Packet truncatin** End-t-end path visibility Benefit The data brker supprts 1-, 10-, 40-, and 100-Gbps prts. Yu can cnfigure prts as mnitring tl prts r as input TAP and SPAN prts. Yu can set end-device names fr easy identificatin in the tplgy. Yu can tag traffic with a VLAN fr each input TAP r SPAN prt. Q-in-Q in edge TAP and SPAN prts can uniquely identify the surce f traffic and preserve prductin VLAN infrmatin. Yu can cnfigure hashing based n Layer 3 (IP address) r Layer 3 plus Layer 4 (prtcl prts) t lad-balance the traffic acrss a prtchannel link. Yu can spread the traffic acrss multiple tl instances t accmmdate high-traffic-vlume scale. Yu can match traffic based n Layer 1 thrugh Layer 4 criteria. Yu can cnfigure the sftware t send nly the required traffic t the mnitring tls withut flding the tls with unnecessary traffic. Yu can cnfigure an actin t set the VLAN ID fr the matched traffic. Yu can match n HTTP methds such as GET and PUT and take specific actins fr that traffic. This feature can help reduce the vlume f traffic sent t any Websense tls. Yu can filter MPLS packets by enabling MPLS label stripping. Yu can aggregate traffic frm multiple input TAP and SPAN prts. Yu can cnfigure the sftware t replicate and frward traffic t multiple mnitring tls. This slutin is the nly slutin that supprts any-t-many frwarding. Yu can time-stamp a packet at ingress using the Precisin Time Prtcl (PTP; IEEE 1588), thereby prviding nansecnd accuracy. Yu can use this capability t mnitr critical transactins and archive data fr regulatry cmpliance and advanced trubleshting. Yu can cnfigure the sftware t truncate a packet beynd a specified number f bytes. The minimum packet size is 64 bytes. Yu can retain a header fr nly analysis and trubleshting. Yu can cnfigure the sftware t discard the paylad fr security r cmpliance reasns. Fr each traffic-frwarding rule, the slutin prvides cmplete end-tend path visibility all the way frm the surce prts t the mnitring tls.
