HP Van Network Protector

Hi,

We are looking at the idea of enabling openflow to a HP Van controller on one of our vlans

We see alot of internet scanning activity on that vlan we want to block/quarantine once a theshold is hit or even throttle if possible ?

We use 2x HP 5900AF-48XG-4QSFP+ in an IRF stack, running Comware 7.1.045 2311P01 currently

Do you think HP Van and this network protector sdn app would be possible solution to our problem ?

Network protector details:

HP Van Network Protector SDN APP

You can see from the below, we are trying to stop the below which we can see via current sflow reporting

Each color in the bars is a single src IP address on our side, the hight of the bars in the uniq destination IP's on the specific tcp ports, so this shows scanning on VNC ports and https

Wow the community here in SDN is really dead.... few theads from the top on a post from last year....

Both SDN and Comware sections really need some HPE networking folk trolling to bring the forums to life..

Starting to think HPE doesn't really care about their network offerings. Atleast not in the same way other vendors look after their comminity forums.

Seriously it would only take 1 SME 1 hour a day to raise the bar significantly...

Hey Daniel,

You may want to check out the Airheads forum. It looks like you (or someone else with a very similar issue) posted over there and it was resolved:
