FSN-3200

Scale-out service node for centralized visibility services and broader multi-tool orchestration.

FSN-3200 appliance

Designed for flexible service delivery

FSN service nodes sit alongside FlowDirector appliances to orchestrate advanced visibility workflows. Use them to adapt to new tooling, policy, and operational requirements without ripping and replacing physical infrastructure.

  • Policy-driven visibility services
  • Service chaining across monitoring and security tools
  • Centralized orchestration and automation-friendly workflows
  • Built to integrate with FlowDirector network fabric visibility appliances

Core capabilities

FSN nodes add agility to the visibility stack, giving operators a software-defined layer for rapid service updates.

Visibility orchestration

Deliver traffic to tools based on policy and operational context, with consistent control across sites and environments.

Service flexibility

Introduce new visibility services without re-cabling or redesigning the physical fabric.

Operational readiness

Support governance, security, and monitoring teams with a unified service layer that scales as needs evolve.
