Load Balancing

Profitap NPB feature deep dive

Balance traffic over multiple monitoring and security tools

When several security tools are deployed, load balancing can optimize the response time and avoid uneven load while another is idling. By distributing the traffic load evenly among the available security tools they are used in the most efficient way.

A Network Packet Broker is an ideal tool for this as it sits between the TAPs and security tools.
