Despite the increased capacity available on WAN links, service providers and enterprises often find bandwidth in short supply. This occurs even though most links average only 30%-40% utilisation, and at best 50%-70% when specialised equipment is used. Today’s best practice is to reserve significant capacity, often half of the total link capacity, to ensure a constant data flow during traffic surges and bandwidth-hogging application sessions, such as peer-to-peer downloads.
FirstWave uses a technology that empowers WAN link utilisation at 95% or better without loss of connections, delay in traffic flow, queuing, or buffering. Under policy control, every user gets a fair and equitable share of the bandwidth, with high quality of experience (QoE). FirstWave’s Secure Traffic Manager (STM) runs virtual machines (VM), dedicated servers, or on our branded devices.
