Today's
organisations are becoming more complex and globally
distributed, causing many IT managers to find
it increasingly challenging to maintain WAN application
performance and reduce business disruptions. Because
of these situations, the need to look at reducing
their bandwidth costs, improve utilisation of
existing bandwidth, better manage remote offices,
and increase application performance and round-the-clock
business continuity has become an important and
critical business requirement. And all of that
to be resolved within a reasonable budget.
What is 3C ?
3C stands for Combine, Control and Compress (of
WAN connections).
MediaWeb's 3C
WAN Enhancement Strategy is the logical solution
to solve your organisation's :
Combine:
WAN Load Balancing
WAN Load Balancing
empowers you with the ability to combine multiple
Internet/Private WAN links without any ISP cooperation.
It allows you to combine different WAN technologies
to be used as if its one single connection.
WAN Load Balancing
is an overall description of multiple benefits
:
- Load Balancing of
Inbound/Outbound WAN traffic (including Hosting
of Application over multiple links)
- Routing of different traffic
over different WAN link (based on Application,
Destination IP Address and Source IP Address)
- Setting of Priority + Max/Min
Traffic over different links
- Redundancy of Inbound/Outbound
WAN traffic
- VPN Load Balancing
Most importantly,
it allows you the ability to keep the existing
configurations on your Firewall and Routers. You
can increase the number of WAN connections without
worrying about the need to change IP addresses.

Control:
Bandwidth Monitoring and Shaping
Bandwidth Monitoring and Shaping
empowers you with the ability to understand, analyse
and control your bandwidth usage.
The detailed but easily comprehensible
reports are the best “gift” to IT
administrators. The real-time and historical data
(up to 2 years) allows the administrators to manage
bandwidth in the best possible way:
- Real-time Data allows the
immediate recovery of the problematic source
causing any network issues (Denial of Service,
Rogue Traffic, Error in network configurations
etc).
-
Historical Data allows
you to perform capacity planning and base-lining.
You can plan for your budget and anticipate
bandwidth utilization way ahead of time.
-
Most importantly, it allows
IT administrators to provide a clear overview
of bandwidth conditions to the business management.
Controlling
your bandwidth’s “traffic condition”
through Layer 7 QoS makes your WAN a very different
experience.
- QoS allows you to
ensure the Voice and Video Streaming quality;
-
QoS allows you to set
priority for mission critical traffic like
SAP, Citrix Applications etc;
-
QoS allows you to block
unproductive traffic like Kazaa, eDonkey etc
(P2P traffic can easily takes up 30% of any
Internet connection);
-
QoS allows you to block/slow
down any Website that is affecting productivity.
Bandwidth Shaping
is the ultimate answer to solving any congestion
before you consider upgrading your bandwidth.

Compress:
Intelligent Data Compression
Intelligent Data Compression
empowers you with instant bandwidth capacity without
expensive upgrades of your WAN connection(s).
Intelligent Data Compression
offers many benefits :
- A typical gain of
100-400+% in WAN capacity defer costly network
upgrades;
- Improve application performance
over your WAN connections;
- Selective compression only
performs on compress-worthy data – the
compression gain is always substantial compared
to latency introduced;
- Leaves the IP headers untouched
ensuring no hindrance in the routing of data
packets to the right destination;
- Transparent operation allows
minimum or even no changes to your network.
Overall,
the powerful combination of Bandwidth Shaping
and Intelligent Data Compression makes a perfect
solution for WAN Optimization.
