Description
The objective is to develop a new and more advanced version of our monkit appliance, which combines efficient network monitoring with attack detection in early warning systems. Looking at current network infrastructures, link speeds of 10 GBit/s and more became quite common. Yet, typical monitoring appliances still have problems operating at those speeds. We aim to establish novel alrogithmic solusions bundled with hardware and Linux kernel support to enable the monkit appliance to operating in 10 GBit/s networks. IN a first step, we carefully evaluated all parts of the appliance to identify performance bottlenecks and possible improvements.
