Sorry for the late reply... Sightline *Insight* is the piece the sales team won't sell me, and TAC won't support me, for deployment in our private-cloud environment: it has to be hosted on one of 3 canned server configurations.
I am using Sightline/TMS virtually and it's fine there. -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services MERLIN 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) https://www.merlin.mb.ca<https://www.merlin.mb.ca/> Chat with me on Teams<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=athomp...@merlin.mb.ca> ________________________________ From: NANOG <nanog-bounces+athompson=merlin.mb...@nanog.org> on behalf of Dobbins, Roland via NANOG <nanog@nanog.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2023 9:34:21 PM To: nanog@nanog.org <nanog@nanog.org> Subject: Re: FastNetMon Usage in the wild On 11 Oct 2023, at 01:50, Adam Thompson <athomp...@merlin.mb.ca> wrote: you need to buy a moderately-expensive hardware server (they don’t let you virtualize it) To clarify, Sightline has supported virtualization for many years, FYI. I’m not aware of any anti-DDoS products at ISP scale that aren’t SFlow + Flowspec, possibly including “scrubbing” (diverter box); I don’t know if it’s an in-band appliance, or a “scrubber”-on-a-stick In addition to flow telemetry, D/RTBH, S/RTBH, and flowspec, Sightline/TMS supports intelligent DDoS mitigation directly in-line or via diversion/reinjection.
