Overview
|
|
|
The HP Core Controller Base Chassis with 48x1000Base-T and 6x10GbE Ports enables 10 Gbps links to be protected by the industry-leading HP TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). The core controller solution enables up to 20 Gbps of automated, in-line traffic inspection to protect network devices, virtualization software, operating systems, and enterprise and Web applications from attack. The solution is extremely scalable and economical, and delivers the same high availability, performance, low latency, and security accuracy that are the hallmarks of HP TippingPoint IPS solutions.
Features
|
|
|
| • |
Protect network resources and critical applications on 10 GbE network links: The HP Core Controller enables automated, in-line traffic inspection, up to 20 Gbps, to protect network devices, virtualization software, operating systems, and enterprise and Web applications from attack. |
| • |
Up to 20 Gbps IPS traffic inspection: The core controller is deployed as a "bump-in-the wire" network element for up to three 10-GbE network links. Traffic entering the core controller is intelligently flow-balanced to a bank of HP TippingPoint IPS units for traffic inspection. Malicious and unwanted traffic is blocked, and clean traffic is returned to the core controller for distribution to the appropriate 10 Gbps egress link, allowing you to scale security up to 20 Gbps with a single solution. |
| • |
Flow management across multiple IPS units: The HP Core Controller balances traffic inspection loads across multiple IPS units. In addition, the core controller supports both IPv6 and IPv4 traffic inspection and load balancing, providing maximum flexibility for heterogeneous networks. The unit guarantees flow affinity so that all associated traffic goes through the same IPS segment. |
| • |
Maintain network reliability for 10 GbE network segments: All HP TippingPoint appliances are purpose-built with the reliability to go in-line within enterprise and service provider networks. In addition, the HP Core Controller has sophisticated high-availability features, including redundant core controller configurability, built-in zero power high availability (Smart ZPHA), IPS heartbeat monitoring, link down synchronization, and hardware watchdogs. |
| • |
Flexible core controller and IPS redundancy configurations: The HP Core Controller solution allows an unprecedented level of flexibility to eliminate a single point of failure. Where 10 GbE redundant paths are implemented, one core controller can be deployed in each path, both of which then share a common pool of IPS units. As a result, an HP Core Controller or IPS can be removed from service without impacting network availability, performance, or security coverage. |
