System and method for monitoring two-wire communication in a network environment

摘要

An example method is provided and includes receiving a first signal transmitted to an address on a two-wire bus from a master device, where the two-wire bus couples the master device with a first slave and a second slave that share the address such that the first slave and the second slave receive the first signal. The method includes blocking a second signal from the second slave to the master device using digital isolation buffers. In particular embodiments, the digital isolation buffers are configured between the master device and the second slave. In addition, the two-wire bus may include a clock line and a data line. The digital isolation buffers may include a first digital isolation buffer located on the clock line between the master device and the second slave, and a second digital isolation buffer located on the data line between the master device and the second slave.
