The Niagara 2299 is a Modular External Active Bypass possessing active bypass functionality for seamless failover, TAP functionality for traffic monitoring, and extensive management capabilities. Niagara 2299 supports maximum flexibility and scalability by offering four independent Gigabit Ethernet interface segments with various media combinations including copper, single-mode fiber, multi-mode fiber, multi-mode fiber to single-mode fiber conversion and copper to fiber conversion options. The intelligent bypass also enables plug-and-play connectivity, includes an auto heartbeat and requires no additional drivers to be installed on connected appliances.
Niagara 2299 guarantees uninterrupted network connectivity on each of its four segments in instances of power failures or system crashes. IT managers and Service Providers that manage Inline systems like Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), Intrusion Detection & Prevention, Unified Threat Management, WAN acceleration, Firewall, Load balancing, and VPN gateway devices can utilize Niagara 2299 to proactively disconnect Network Appliances for maintenance or replacement. This ensures that hardware/firmware can be updated or new upload rules and signatures can be loaded without network downtime.
The system provides flexible and intuitive CLI and GUI management features including secure web UI via an HTTPS connection, secure shell (SSH), SNMP, e-mail notification for special events, and bypass method configuration. An authentication client capable of interfacing with authentication servers like TACACS+ and Radius is also supported. In addition, the bypass system possesses Syslog support, enabling consolidation of log data from various systems into a central repository.
Niagara 2299 Modular External Active Bypass provides features that are essential in today’s data centers including:
Niagara 2299 utilizes two redundant external power supplies for maximum reliability.
Niagara 2299 deploys passive bypass along with active switching for fail safe operation.
These capabilities provide a simple, secure and easy way to maintain, monitor and manage the appliance and the network.
