Acquire Traffic using Traffic Mirroring – GigaVUE-FM Orchestration

This section outlines the workflow for acquiring traffic with Traffic Mirroring and deploying GigaVUE Fabric Components using GigaVUE-FM. It provides step-by-step guidance on configuring traffic acquisition, processing, and forwarding to your desired destination.

Note: When GigaVUE-FM and the workload VMs requiring monitoring are in different AWS accounts, you must configure a load balancer. Refer to Acquire Traffic using Customer Orchestrated Source with Network Load Balancer or Acquire Traffic using Customer Orchestrated Source with Gateway Load Balancing for configuration steps.
