Abstract
With the growing popularity of cloud-leveraged infrastructures and services, the clustered operation of multiple physical and virtualized boxes is rapidly increasing in a single site. It is however very hard to monitor and control the targeted site for security management when there exist a number of inter-connected boxes. To address this issue, in this paper, we utilize IO Visor-based packet tracing to inspect and collect the packets from multiple boxes in the site. Also, we introduce the concept of Site Visibility Framework by leveraging IO Visor-based packet tracing, which supports packet-level monitoring for security management of inter-connected boxes in the site.

Notes
- 1.
SmartX Boxes are hyper-converged Linux boxes that integrate compute, storage, and networking resources to build a cloud infrastructure [2].
- 2.
Visible transport framework should be able to provide packet-precise visibility throughout the delivery of packets from senders to receivers.
