SD-WAN

Software-defined wide area networking adds a layer of software on top of the existing network to automate the configuration of edge routers and direct traffic over a mix of wireless and broadband network access.

This solution allows Telesystem to set up dynamic policies that direct your traffic over the best path available based upon application priority. If a business experiences a high-traffic situation, SD-WAN offers a real time network solution and better customized management of traffic across the network.

Features + Benefits of SD-WAN

• More transport options: What if there were multiple alternative routes available to drivers caught in a hypothetical network traffic jam? SD-WAN delivers such a benefit to applications on your network, through its support for commodity broadband, cellular (e.g., 4G LTE) connectivity and dedicated internet access, in addition to MPLS - reducing reliance on private MPLS only links.
  
  
• Reduced Costs: Because of the ability to use alternative transport types, your company experiences reduced WAN costs and scaled capacity through the use of lower-priced broadband connections.
  
  
• Automated decision making: Like Waze or Google Maps, an SD-WAN controller is always searching for the best possible routes. It might send traffic down a public or private connection depending on the current state of the network. The underlying transport does not matter as much as the path quality for your most demanding apps.
  
  
• Enhanced security: With many everyday services moving to the cloud, it's important to have peace of mind that their workloads are as safe as possible from interception and data leakage. SD-WAN solutions provide encryption alongside various security integrations that protect cloud-bound traffic.
  
  
• Centralized network visibility and management: SD-WAN is essentially a software layer that automates the configuration of all edge routers. As such, it offers comprehensive insight into network conditions and enables quick, easy configuration as requirements evolve. Management is more streamlined compared to the lengthier, more ad hoc processes associated with MPLS-only WANs and network services can easily be aligned to user and application needs to support bandwidth intensive applications and workloads. Greater visibility also means maintained connectivity for improved business continuity and disaster recovery capabilities.
  
  
• Improved branch deployments: Improved application performance and quality of service for remote and branch workers along with the ability to add new locations without a lengthy deployment window. SD-WAN also offers reduced complexity & maintenance with simplified remote office CPE requirements.  

IDEAL FOR:

Versa Secure provides a combination of SD-WAN and multi-layered security that is optimal for companies who need to utilize multi-cloud connectivity such as AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform from a centralized and secure location, or in a distributed model where every branch location receives direct and optimized cloud access with security

KEY FEATURES:

• • Improved Connectivity - Increase your bandwidth and cloud experience, improve flexibility and decrease cost of legacy WANs
  • Enterprise-Grade Security - Features next-generation firewall (NGFW), and unified threat management (UTM) services that protects application and user activity across the enterprise WAN, branch, and provide/public clouds.
  • Scalability - Enable secure, scalable, and reliable enterprise-wide networking while increasing multi-cloud application performance and dramatically driving down costs.
  • Analytics - Real-time and historical visibility, baselining, correlation, prediction, and closed-loop feedback of your network. Analytics data provides policy driven data logging, real-time and historical traffic visibility & anomaly detection, reporting for multiple network and security services.

SD-WAN with Cisco Meraki

Applications are now hosted in multiple locations: the data center, IaaS, and SaaS providers – and are accessed in multiple ways, including direct Internet access. One of the key challenges to maximizing performance in such a multi-hosted environment is that organizations do not have ownership or direct management of public cloud environments, or the transit to them.

With more business-critical traffic becoming cloud-centric, the need to intelligently maximize SaaS application quality of experience (QoE) is emerging as a vital expectation of SD-WAN.

IDEAL FOR:

Cisco Meraki is ideal for organizations with sites who are reliant on apps served by SaaS, IaaS, or data-center locations who need fully featured unified threat management.  Meraki will significantly reduce total WAN costs and deliver the desired level of performance for VoIP and business critical cloud applications.

KEY FEATURES:

• Simple Deployments - Rapid deployment allows the quickest and simplest way for organizations to significantly reduce their total WAN costs and deliver the desired level of performance for VoIP and business critical cloud applications – no matter where they are hosted.
• Natively Secure SD-WAN - Natively integrated advanced security that includes next-gen layer-7 firewall, Cisco AMP with Threat Grid, Cisco SNORT IDS/IPS, cloud security, and content filtering – to confidently allow direct Internet access.
• Advanced Analytics - Supreme visibility into key factors that influence how users experience business-critical resources to identify any degradation and its root cause in a matter of minutes.
• Unified Management Platform - Single intuitive and centralized platform to streamline IT operations with visibility into SD-WAN as well as wireless, switching, security, cellular, and smart security cameras when using the full Meraki platform.
