The Cisco NetFlow Generation Appliance (NGA) 3240 introduces a highly scalable, cost-effective architecture for cross-device flow generation in today's high-performance data centers.
With leading-edge performance of up to 32 Gbps and a superior active flow cache of up to 80 million entries, the NGA 3240 meets the rigorous performance demands of high-speed data centers. It can rapidly transform packet data gathered from devices across the data center into NetFlow records and exports the flow data to NetFlow collectors, promoting consistent and comprehensive hop-by-hop visibility.
The NGA 3240 supports NetFlow versions 5 and 9 and IP information export (IPFIX), and seamlessly integrates with standards-based collectors, including Cisco Prime Infrastructure. The NGA can export NetFlow records to multiple collectors concurrently, providing a single flow source for business-critical management applications such as security, billing, capacity planning, and more.
