Hi Gunnar,

We at TopLayer have a solution - we have just brought out a cut down version
of the App Safe - called the IDS Balancer, which is the only true balancer
designed for nIDS traffic - and a lot of interoperability has been done with
ISS.

But enough sales pitch - here is what we can offer, the next release (due
out next week) has a new feature which will remove VLAN tags before passing
it to the IDS (this feature actually started out of a request from various
ISS engineers).

In addition (on the GB question)we have done a lot of interoperability
testing with ISS in the GB environment, and can deliver 100% attack
recognition on a 100% utilized network (see
http://www.toplayer.com/research/whitepapers/wp_gigabit_intrusion.html )

However with the advent of GB sensors, this can also work the other way
round - where you have multiple 100MB/s being monitor by 1 Network ICE GB
sensor

If you would like some more information please let me know

Cheers

Simon

Hello.

I have a truncated (VLan) 1Gig line with different VLans passing.

My two questions for the group is:

1. Will the different NIDS (e.g. ISS) work normally on VLan traffic?
If I understand this correctly, VLan is only a 'id-tag' in the packet, used
by
routers/switches to route packets.

2. Anyone knows of a 1 Gig solution to 1. ? :)

I will be greatful for any input or directions to information that can help
me.

Thanks!

Gunnar Alendal
