Software-Defined Visibility

FlowDirector FSN-3200

Back to Product Catalog

Fixed ports and modular expansion

FSN-3200 is a 2U rack-mountable modular service node built for high-density visibility fabrics. Six traffic module slots let teams combine copper and fiber interfaces across 1Gb, 10Gb, 25Gb, 40Gb, and 100Gb monitoring, brokering, capture, and service workflows.

  • Up to thirty six 1/10Gb SFP+/RJ45 ports
  • Up to twenty 1/10/25Gb SFP28 ports
  • Up to eight 40/100Gb QSFP28 ports
  • Up to 6 traffic modules in one chassis
  • The FlowDirector Service Node-3200 (FSN-3200) is a 2U rack-mountable modular appliance that delivers high port density and higher-capacity software-defined visibility services for enterprise-scale deployments.

Storage and data capture

The platform separates operating media from retention storage so packet broker, service chaining, and packet recording workflows can run in the same appliance.

System storage

  • One or two dedicated SSD-based system drive(s)
  • System media remains separate from packet capture retention storage

Capture storage options

  • FSN-3200-12 supports 12 x 3.5-inch external hot-swappable data drives
  • FSN-3200-24 supports 24 x 2.5-inch external hot-swappable data drives
  • Packet capture requires a data drive option

Network packet broker functions

FSN-3200 combines FlowDirector packet broker services with advanced visibility functions, so each interface can be assigned to traffic ingress or egress, NetFlow export, or network-attached storage connectivity roles.

Interface roles

  • Traffic ingress/Egress port
  • Interface to send NetFlow record
  • Interface to connect to network attached storage

Traffic module options

  • Up to 6 modules for FSN-3200
  • Regular copper and fiber iNIC modules for 1/10/25/40/100Gbps interfaces
  • Bypass-capable copper and fiber iNIC modules for 1/10/40/100Gbps interfaces
  • Bypass plus embedded switch module options for 1/10/40/100Gbps interfaces

Traffic operations

  • Traffic tagging
  • VLAN/MPLS/Cisco Fabric Path Insert/Removal
  • Traffic Aggregation
  • Traffic Replication
  • Traffic Filter
  • Load balance

Advanced visibility

  • Packet Deduplication
  • V5/V9/IPFIX NetFlow Record Generation
  • Advanced Programmable Match-Action
  • VxLAN/GTP/IPIP Deep Tunnel Processor
  • Advanced Tunnel Processor
  • Microburst Controller
  • Packet Field Operator
  • Packet Capture (requires data drive option)

Available iNIC Traffic Modules
