GigaVUE-FM Overview

GigaVUE-FM is a web-based fabric management interface that provides high-level visibility and management of both the physical and virtual traffic visibility nodes that form the Gigamon Traffic Visibility Fabric™. GigaVUE-FM can manage the following types of traffic visibility nodes:

•

Physical GigaVUE Nodes – GigaVUE-FM manages GigaVUE G Series, TA Series, and H Series nodes, allowing for a unified workspace, while also providing an easy-to-use wizard-based approach for configuring Flow Mapping® and GigaSMART® traffic policies. For a list of GigaVUE G Series, TA Series, and H Series nodes supported for management in this release, refer to Supported GigaVUE G Series, TA Series, and H Series Nodes .

•

Virtual GigaVUE Nodes – GigaVUE-FM also extends the GigaVUE feature set into the virtual space by allowing for the discovery, configuration, and management of the new GigaVUE-VM virtual traffic visibility node. GigaVUE-VM provides powerful Flow Mapping technology for the traffic flowing between virtual machines, allowing you to distribute cloud-based traffic to physical tool ports in the visibility fabric.
