A lot of network traffic simply does not need to be routed to, and inspected by, all of the network management and security tools on your network. There are many ways to achieve this including routing traffic from specific ports to specific tools. Gigamon Flow Mapping® lets you do exactly this by mapping traffic from specific TCP ports, VLANS or using certain protocols to designated tools while filtering out the rest. Using Gigamon Flow Mapping customers see between 20-30 percent traffic reduction to their network tools.
