TIME MACHINE DEVICE AND METHODS THEREOF
First Claim
1. A time machine arrangement for performing health check on a network environment, comprising:
- a set of network ports, said set of network ports including a set of input network ports for receiving data traffic and a set of output network ports for outputting said data traffic from said time machine arrangement;
a monitoring port, said monitoring port being configured to receive at least a portion of said data traffic flowing through said network environment;
a set of processors configured at least for managing and analyzing said data traffic, wherein said set of processors includinga scheduler component configured for directing said data traffic,a filtering component configured for applying a set of filters on said set data traffic,an encryption component configured for encrypting said data traffic, anda trigger component configured for defining a set of conditions for storing said data traffic; and
a storage memory component configured for storing a copy of at least said portion of said data traffic flowing through said network environment.

Abstract
A time machine arrangement for performing health check on a network environment is provided. The arrangement includes a set of network ports that that is configured for receiving and outputting network data traffic. The arrangement also includes a monitoring port for receiving at least a portion of the data traffic flowing through the network. The arrangement further includes a set of processors configured at least for managing and analyzing the data traffic. The set of processors includes a scheduler component for directing the data traffic, a filtering component for applying a set of filters on the set data traffic, an encryption component for encrypting the data traffic, and a trigger component for defining a set of conditions for storing the data traffic. The arrangement yet also includes a storage memory component for storing a copy of at least the portion of the data traffic flowing through the network environment.

16. A method for performing health check on a network environment, comprising:
-
receiving a set of data packets; copying said set of data packets to generate a monitored set of data packets; distributing said monitored set of data packets between a set of processors; processing said monitored set of data packets, wherein said processing include at least one of filtering said monitored set of data packets based on a set of filtered conditions, encrypting said monitored set of data packets, and applying a set of storage criteria to said monitored set of data packets, wherein said set of storage criteria defined conditions for storing said monitored set of data packets; and saving at least a portion of said monitored set of data packets. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
