As of November 2024, in the Traffic Switching category, the mindshare of Ixia Bypass Switches is 50.0%, up
from 50.0% compared to the previous year. The mindshare of Ixia Network Packet Brokers is 50.0%, up
from 50.0% compared to the previous year. It is calculated based on PeerSpot user engagement data.
Network packet brokers (NPBs) filter traffic to send only the right data to the right tool. Packets are aggregated and filtered from Layer 2 through to the application layer. Duplicate packets can also be removed and sensitive content stripped before the data is sent to the monitoring tools if that is required. This provides a better solution to improve the efficiency and utility of your monitoring tools.
Ixia Bypass Switches provide fail-safe, inline protection designed to fit a network of any size. These switches safeguard a network with automated failover protection, preventing temporary tool outages from escalating into costly network outages.
