As per my understanding:- In case of normal scenario the the analytic tool can installed in the server location (data center) and traffic can be tapped for the analytic tool.
In a cloud environment the physical servers for the TCP request and response can be a diffident geographic locations. So how the analytic tool can capture at a cloud environment for TCP request response ? (want to more understand on CNF (cloud network function) and TCP session mapping).
In cloud environment most of network elements will be virtualize and hidden to the actual network elements. Through FQDN the client can access the cloud network elements, but the tool can process mostly on layer 3 (IP layer) and layer 4 (TCP layer) not the Application layer protocols . The FQDN to IP will be resolved at the Application layer by DNS server.
Could you please help me to understand how to capture the TCP session from cloud packets with out processing to application layer ? What could be the deployment scenarios ?
Is it possible to provide me the sample cloud traffic pcap ?
