Abstract

In one embodiment, a data plane component of the network visibility system can receive a data packet tapped from a source network. The data plane component can further match the data packet with an entry in a rule table, where the entry includes one or more match parameters, and in response to the matching can tag the data packet with a zone identifier defined in the entry. The data plane component can then forward the tagged data packet to an analytic server for analysis.
