Tolly Group also verified a wide range of features including multiple port mapping options, protocol and bit-map filtering, thousands of simultaneous ingress and egress filters per device, and various SNMP and syslog integration features, they added.
The successful completion of the test, according to company officials, substantiates Gigamon's industry leading performance and functionality.
