StealthWatch FlowReplicator

Easily Replicate NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, Syslog or SNMP

Watch this video on the FlowReplicator! The StealthWatch FlowReplicator is a high-speed, high-performance appliance that receives essential network and security information from multiple locations, and then forwards it in a single data stream to one or more destinations, such as the StealthWatch FlowCollector. By aggregating and providing a single, standardized destination for NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, Syslog and SNMP information, the FlowReplicator greatly simplifies the integration of multiple types of network and security data within large enterprises. The FlowReplicator can receive data from any connectionless UDP application, and then retransmit it to multiple destinations, duplicating the data if required.

Key Benefits

Point log data (NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, Syslog, SNMP) to a single destination without the need to reconfigure the infrastructure when new tools are added/removed.

  • Simplify network and security monitoring
  • Ease network device configuration
  • Streamline change management
  • Reduce change management risk

Simplify the Collection of Network and Security Data Across the Enterprise

The StealthWatch FlowReplicator is a high-speed, high-performance appliance that receives essential network and security information from multiple locations, and then forwards it in a single data stream to one or more destinations, such as the StealthWatch FlowCollector. It is available as a physical or virtual appliance. By aggregating and providing a single, standardized destination for NetFlow, sFlow, Syslog and SNMP information, the FlowReplicator greatly simplifies the integration of multiple types of network and security data within large enterprises. The FlowReplicator can receive data from any connectionless UDP application, and then retransmit it to multiple destinations, duplicating the data if required.

Supports Any Connectionless UDP Application

  • NetFlow records sent from multiple routers can be replicated to several different NetFlow collectors, eliminating the need for a multitude of NetFlow destination specifications in the NetFlow exporter configuration.
  • sFlow samples sent from several routers and switches can be replicated to multiple sFlow collectors. As with the NetFlow example, this use removes the need for multiple sFlow destination specifications in the sFlow exporter configuration.
  • Syslog messages can be automatically replicated to multiple Syslog collectors.
  • SNMP traps from routers, switches and other network devices can be automatically collected and distributed to several different SNMP management stations.

The FlowReplicator Virtual Edition (VE) is designed to perform the same function as the appliance editions, but in a VMware environment. The following table shows the minimum resource requirements for the FR VE to operate. However, the FR VE scales dynamically based on the resources allocated to it. Therefore, for the FR VE to operate effectively, be sure to allocate resources so that they are reserved for the FR VE and not shared with any other virtual machines.
