Connectors for Flow Ingestion
Connectors stream flow observations from different Network switches, routers, and other middle-boxes (such as load balancers and firewalls) to Secure Workload for flow ingestion.
Secure Workload supports flow ingestion through NetFlow v9, IPFIX, and custom protocols. In addition to flow observations, middle-box connectors actively stitch client-side and server-side flows to understand which client flows are related to which server flows.
