2.1. Tap function

The GTap prevents potential attacks and disturbances by blocking light from the monitor's ports.
The GTap monitors the seven OSI layers.
The GTap is not configurable and therefore has no management/administration interface.
The GTap does not memorize traffic.
The GTap is non-intrusive and therefore does not disrupt the traffic to be replicated.
Depending on the model, the GTap has a different split ratio:
  • GTAP_O1310_1P_5050: 50/50 split ratio

  • GTAP_O1310_1P_6040: 60/40 split ratio

  • GTAP_O1550_1P_5050: 50/50 split ratio

  • GTAP_O1550_1P_6040: 60/40 split ratio
