WAN optimization, ERP availability, cost reduction and bandwidth expansion – these are the clear goals of many IT strategies. But how can they be achieved?
Traffic Intelligence
|
The leading-edge traffic intelligence technology of NG Firewall provides impressive answers and is increasingly developing to become the industry standard. The controlled and highly efficient interplay of kernel routing, firewall traffic analysis and local/ global monitoring allows synchronization of IP traffic. This approach also permits the requirements of corporate applications and their cost optimum to be addressed with maximum effect. Traffic intelligence permits redundant Internet connectivity and protocol-based load balancing via more than one provider link. In combination with VPN functionality and bandwidth management by NG Firewall, companies can achieve a high level of cost-effective and failsafe network structures. |

The BOB - the branch office box
The trend for stronger penetration of ERP and CRM systems in businesses remains strong. Alongside the cost-saving centralisation of IT systems, this penetration has had direct and dramatic effects on the quality demands placed on branch networking. In this respect, not merely availability and freedom from interruption, but also line quality with regard to guaranteed bandwidths are central quality criteria.
Branch Office Box (BOB) is every CIO's and infrastructure specialist's dream come true. Leading market experts agree that the future of the Wide Area Networks (WAN) will to a large extent be determined by BOB. BOBs combine the advantages of distributed security solutions (firewall/VPN) with traffic intelligence and WAN optimisation. Technologies such as compression, hardware encryption and application optimisation are united in one device.
This solution, which can be installed with just a few clicks of the mouse, offers an attractive and cost-efficient opportunity to further optimise the traffic flow your WAN to achieve best possible line use. |
