Turn Your Load Balancer into an App Tap
summary
A NetScaler load balancer is turned into an application tap that exports L7 transaction data as IPFIX export records so any NetFlow tool or Splunk can consume it. The implementation uses a high‑speed 100 Gbps L7 proxy to capture user‑level page and transaction events without agents, collapses span ports and gigamon boxes, and feeds real‑time policies for compress, log or drop and rate limiting based on live metrics.
