Service insertion
NOTE:
Service insertion is supported on the following switches:
- Aruba 3810 Switch
- Aruba 5400R Switch
Service Insertion is supported in v1-compatible mode.
Service Insertion is transparently inserting an external service into a traffic flow or into the traffic processing pipeline:
Flows are redirected to a service for inspection and then reinjected to the forwarding pipeline
Possible services include IPS, Network Protector SDN Application, web filtering, and traffic analyzers
Service Insertion is handled by the ASIC via a tunnel or Fast Path, and does not incur any processor processing overhead.
