fellow at niksun also pointed me to
http://www.niksun.com/press_releases/NIKSUN_PR_ETH_GIGABIT.htm
i'll try to get those three up on the taxonomy
(narus: NT/solaris, seems to have a billing focus?
netscout: seems to be RMON2-based, with gigE support for that
niksun: freebsd-based, also a bunch of other media
(t1,e1(ppp&fr), v.35, HSSI, normal enets (10/100), fddi,
soon atm+pos oc3+12)), optimizations for capturing speed,
closest to coral kind of stuff. supposed to ship june 2000.
)
haven't used any of them, if others want their
comments in taxonomy, anonymized or not, forward to me?

I've had good luck with Netscout (www.netscout.com) for other products, and
I know they have Gig-E taps (two on order now) and I think they have OC-12
taps too.

Subject: Gigabit Traffic Monitoring
Does anybody know a product to do Gigabit Ethernet traffic monitoring,
like
CoralReef does for OC3/OC12 ?
Rubens Kuhl Jr.
rubens
am not aware of anyone currently shipping such a monitor,
(i'd pay good money to be wrong tho)
although several companies are planning to add gig-e to
their existing monitoring products.
caida does have funding from darpa to develop a
gigabit ethernet monitor, & we will make that system
work w coralreef, but unfortunately i can't nail down
a ship date at this time
hopefully someone will point out a product
i missed and i'll add it to the taxonomy
