Network Performance Enforcement Solutions
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.

A Primer in Root Cause Analysis
In this article I will attempt to outline a general process for troubleshooting network-related events, meaning those issues which directly impact the performance of a computer network or application resulting in a negative impact on user experience. While I will use FirstWave’s Solutions in the examples, these steps can be applied to any collection of NMS tools.
