Abstract

A method of optimizing network traffic visibility resources comprises receiving, by a controller associated with a network traffic visibility system, information indicative of operation of the network traffic visibility system. The method further comprises facilitating, by the controller, control of resources in the network traffic visibility system, according to a configured resource control policy. The facilitating can include providing, by the controller, control signaling to cause maximization of network traffic monitoring fidelity for a plurality of Quality of Service (QoS) classes of network traffic, based on a specified fixed amount of one or more network resources associated with the network traffic visibility system. Alternatively or additionally, the facilitating can include providing, by the controller, control signaling to cause minimization of use of the one or more network resources, based on a specified fixed level of traffic monitoring fidelity associated with the plurality of QoS classes.
