What is the performance of the IG2000?
The IG2000 uses custom ASICS and a patent-pending architecture to monitor thresholds on any/all L2, L3, or L4 protocol, any port, any address at Gigabit Ethernet Line Rate. Using a smartbits traffic generator, we measured a latency of 2µs to 40 µs through the IG2000 and a 0% throughput loss, with all filters turned on. Dropping packets does not affect performance, since all thresholds are being continuously monitored at all times.
