 As network connectivity has become critical in allowing us to deliver all of our services, the need for constant, reliable connectivity is evermore critical. Organizations such as hospitals, retail stores, high-speed trading and banking establishments cannot tolerate even a few minutes of network downtime without having a possible negative effect on their business.

Using a bypass network TAP provides fail-over or fail-safe capabilities for your inline networking appliances, allowing you to deploy these devices with ease. With a click of a mouse, you can very simply bypass the device, without taking down the network or losing data.

Three key benefits of using a bypass network TAP with an active, inline device:

  1. Anytime and Anywhere Access to In-Line Devices
    With a remote control CLI/GUI interface, trouble-shooting issues just go a whole lot easier. No longer do you have to be onsite to figure out where a problem is occurring. With a simple, click-of-a-mouse you can take your active, inline device off-line and ‘see’ where the problem is – and still get all the data and traffic.
  2. Quick Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR)
    Identifying network vs. security issues can be a problem. By using a bypass network TAP, you immediately determine if the issue is a result of the security tool. Simply take it off-line (breakout mode), if the problem stops – it’s the tool. If the problem doesn’t stop, look at other network causes.
  3. Easy to Apply Patches and Maintenance
    Imagine no more midnight madness maintenance and patch parties. The days of working off-peak hours to install patches and perform scheduled maintenance are long gone – at least for those companies with bypass network TAPs.

A Bypass Network TAP allows you to manage security appliances, while ensuring network uptime.

With these key real world benefits to deploying bypass TAPs, it’s easy to see why the best performing and innovative organizations are deploying them on their networks.
