VIAVI Observer GigaFlow delivers enriched flow visibility that combines data from networks, users, and infrastructure to support both NetOps and SecOps. Unlike traditional NetFlow, GigaFlow aggregates detailed records across Layer 2 and Layer 3 devices, end-user systems, authentication sources, and cloud or application identifiers. Its extended flow records include fields such as VLAN, MAC, usernames, domains, URLs, policy rules, and response codes, offering deep insight into activity across the environment. This enriched visibility helps teams monitor third‑party devices, analyze ARP and CAM tables, track authentication details, and improve troubleshooting, security analysis, and performance monitoring.
