Virtual network
TAP enables customers to continuously stream virtual machine network traffic to
a network packet collector or analytics tool. Unlike traditional packet capture
solutions that require the deployment of additional agents or network
appliances, virtual network TAP leverages Azure’s native infrastructure to
mirror traffic with minimal overhead, enhancing both analytics and security
capabilities.
As
organizations migrate to the cloud, traditional network monitoring approaches
often fall short. Many security and performance monitoring tools depend on
packet-level visibility, which is challenging to obtain in cloud environments.
Virtual network TAP addresses this challenge by offering the following
benefits:
- Agentless, transparent traffic
mirroring without
having to alter your topology
- Zero performance impact on VMs; mirrored traffic does
not count against VM bandwidth.
- Broad compatibility with third-party security and
monitoring tools, allowing seamless integration into existing
cybersecurity frameworks.
