Cubro EXA32100: MPLS over UDP Header Stripping

Cubro has further enhanced its flagship EXA32100 Advanced Packet Broker. With the latest software release, the EXA32100 is able to remove MPLS over UDP tunnels from incoming packets. Thus, users can continue using existing monitoring tools and traffic analysis systems that do not support MPLS over UDP in modern overlay network architectures.

In addition to removal of the MPLS over UDP encapsulation headers, the EXA32100 allows filtering to be done directly on the inner IP Addresses as well as on the inner TCP & UDP Port numbers. Of course, all these features can be used on a full traffic load of up to 3200 Gbit/s without performance degradation.
