XFlow Monitoring
Overview
Trace9® Network XFlow monitoring analyzes the data flowing over a computer network to understand the patterns of communication and identify potential issues or threats. It captures and analyzes a wide range of network protocols, including IP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, and many others. Trace9® XFlow monitoring analyzes both packet and flow-level data to provide a more comprehensive understanding of network activity.
Trace9® XFlow monitoring identifies potential security threats, such as denial of service attacks or malware infections, and to help optimize network performance by identifying bottlenecks and optimizing network resources. It can also be used to monitor network usage and provide detailed reports on network activity.

Cost-effective
Trace9® XFlow monitoring is a cost-effective monitoring solution because it uses existing network infrastructure to collect data, reducing the need for additional monitoring hardware.
Technology Supported Protocols And Devices
Module Dependency
Trace9® network XFlow monitoring module is dependent on net flow protocol.
Scalability
The scalability of Trace9® XFlow monitoring depends on several factors, including the size of the network, the number of devices on the network, the volume of traffic, and the complexity of the network protocols.
Trace9® XFlow monitoring is highly scalable, but it requires the use of specialized hardware and software to handle the high volumes of network traffic. To scale Trace9® XFlow monitoring, it may be necessary to use distributed systems that can handle large amounts of data and distribute the processing load across multiple nodes.
