Create Monitoring Domain

Before connecting to your cloud platform, you must ensure the following:

  • GigaVUE‑FM must be launched in your cloud platform.
  • G-vTAP Agent, G-vTAP Controller, GigaVUE V Series Node and GigaVUE V Series Controller must be installed in your cloud platform.

To configure a AnyCloud connection from GigaVUE‑FM:

  1. From the left navigation pane, select Inventory > VIRTUAL > AnyCloud > Monitoring Domain. The Monitoring Domain page appears.
  2. In the Monitoring Domain page, click New. The AnyCloud Connection Configuration page appears.
  3. Select or enter appropriate information as described in the following table:

    Field

    Description

    Monitoring Domain

    An alias used to identify the monitoring domain. A monitoring domain consists of set of connections.

    Connection Alias

    An alias used to identify the connection.

    G-vTAP Agent

    Subnet CIDRs

    The CIDR of the G-vTAP Agent.

    IP Ranges (optional)

    IP range of the G-vTAP Agent. This is optional.

    Tunnel Type

    Tunnel type for carrying the mirrored traffic from the G-vTAP Agents to the GigaVUE V Series nodes. The tunnel type can be:

    • L2GRE
    • VXLAN

    Tunnel MTU

    The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the maximum size of each packet that the tunnel endpoint can carry from the G-vTAP Agent to the GigaVUE V Series node.

    For GRE, the default value is 9001.

    For VXLAN, the default value is 8951.

    Note:  The G-vTAP Agent tunnel MTU should be 50 bytes less than the agent's destination interface MTU size.

    If Secure Mirror Traffic option is enabled, then to minimize fragmentation you must configure MTU value for G-vTAP Agent.

    Secure Mirror Traffic

    Check box to establish secure tunnel between G-vTAP Agents and GigaVUE V Series nodes.

    G-vTAP Controller

    IP Addresses

    IP address of the G-vTAP controller

    V Series Controller

    IP Addresses

    IP address of the GigaVUE V Series controller

    V Series Node

    IP Addresses

    IP address of the GigaVUE V Series node

    Tunnel MTU

    The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the maximum size of each packet that the tunnel endpoint can carry from the GigaVUE V Series node to the destination.

    Gateway IP (optional)

    IP address of the Gateway. This field is optional.

    Tool Subnet CIDR

    CIDR of the tool subnet

    Additional Subnet CIDRs (optional)

    Additional subnet CIDR
