WAN Network Segment - Physical In-Path

To report the WAN network segment, the CA Standard Monitor in the data center must receive the optimized TCP traffic between the Riverbed Steelhead appliances.

CA Application Delivery Analysis supports a Steelhead Physical In-Path configuration. Use a network tap or mirror traffic from the data center Steelhead appliance to the Monitor NIC on the monitoring device.

If CA Application Delivery Analysis does not already monitor the unoptimized Server network segment in the data center, use the CA Standard Monitor to monitor both WAN-optimized and unoptimized server traffic.

In the Steelhead Physical In-Path configuration below, the CA Standard Monitor receives a mirrored copy of the optimized traffic on the WAN network segment.
