Description
Batfish is an open-source tool designed for network configuration analysis that detects errors and ensures the accuracy of both existing and planned configurations. This tool facilitates the seamless and quick evolution of networks, alleviating concerns over potential outages or security vulnerabilities. Initially created by a collaboration of researchers from Microsoft Research, UCLA, and USC, Batfish has since evolved with contributions from numerous developers. Currently, it is maintained by Intentionet, which also provides Batfish Enterprise, a service that enhances and expands upon the fundamental functionalities of Batfish. Users can utilize Batfish to analyze ACLs and firewall rules, while also examining forwarding paths through traceroute and reachability queries. Additionally, it allows for the assessment of network failure impacts and supports testing methodologies akin to Chaos Monkey. The routing tables generated by Batfish can be closely analyzed, and the tool offers rapid control plane analysis through an abstract representation. Notably, Batfish is capable of performing network analysis in a multivendor environment, accommodating devices from Cisco, Arista, and Cumulus. By leveraging its comprehensive capabilities, network administrators can significantly improve their network reliability and performance.
Description
FlexConnect is a wireless solution designed for deployment in branch and remote offices, allowing users to manage access points (AP) from a central corporate location via a wide area network (WAN) without needing individual controllers at each site. This system permits the configuration and oversight of access points from a distance, ensuring efficient management of network resources. FlexConnect access points have the capability to handle client data traffic locally and can authenticate users on-site if their connection to the main controller fails, but they can also relay traffic back to the controller when connected. In this connected state, the access points are further able to execute local authentication processes. Clients can be managed on a per-WLAN basis, where data can be sent to the controller using CAPWAP (Central Switching) or routed locally through the AP's LAN port (Local Switching). With the Local Switching option, the access points can differentiate client traffic by tagging it into separate VLANs, effectively isolating it from the management traffic. This flexibility enhances network performance and security for branch offices significantly.
