What Matters in Lawful Intercept & Network Analytics
• Broader deployment• Create more robust/secure environments
Cost Effective
• Line rate throughput (up to 14.88 Mpps)• Process more “rules” through your application• Capture - regardless of packet size• Injection – for network infrastructure monitoring and probing
High Performance
• Compatible with industry standard-interface – libpcap• Functions on an industry-standard 10Gb-E PCIe adapter• Easily programmable• Support Windows and Linux
Flexibility and efficiency

FastStack Sniffer10G Overview
Lossless packet capture/injection enabling superior network analytics
Flexibility
- Enables Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)
- Multi-core awareness
- Flexibility of how data can be analyzed
- Supports packet capture and injection at 14.88Mpps (Million packets per second)
High Performance
- Kernel by-pass architecture
- Delivers line rate, loss less packet capture and injection without introducing latency
- Provides lossless packet capture regardless of packet size
Cost Effective
- No specialized capture hardware (ie: Appliance)
- In “Sniffer Mode”, packet-rate sensitive firmware runs on MIPS-like processor on the adapter
- Leverages industry standard 10GbE

Maximum Receive Packet Rate (Mpps)
SNF API: –14.88Mpps, line rate–Lossless packet capture–Documentation and support for
customization
SNF libpcap: –14.88Mpps, line rate–Lossless packet capture–Sniffer10G links/hooks for libpcap
Through OS Kernel: – Less than 4Mpps– In-kernel packet capture– Application does not support SNF
API or libpcap
