Key challenges:

• Not enough SPAN (mirror) ports to connect all the tools

• Too expensive tools for higher throughput (10G, 40G...)

• Oversubscribed networking equipment (routers, switches)

• Complex and often configuration changes

• Too much traffic on network to inspect, can‘t find right data
