nets360 SD-WAN as a Service based on Fortinet
Managed SD-WAN Solution
nets360 offers advanced SD-WAN solutions combined with Direct Cloud and Direct Data Center Access, as well as Carrier Ethernet Services (CES) and Ethernet Private Line (EPL).
What Is SD-WAN?
SD-WAN is a software-defined approach to transforming the WAN that helps accelerate the adoption of cloud-based applications and other digital transformation initiatives. SD-WAN creates overlay tunnels that can handle a variety of connections and dynamically move traffic over the best transport available. It can provide both redundancy and much more capacity using lower-cost links. When time-to-installation and time-to-delivery are considered, SD-WAN solutions cost significantly less than MPLS overall.
SD-WAN provides end-to-end visibility and centralized management to help organizations manage their networks more efficiently. SD-WAN products can be managed directly by enterprises or embedded in a managed service offering. The best SD-WAN solutions offer converged networking and security managed by one centralized management system, allowing sites to be brought on quickly without requiring networking or security experts to be on-site for installation.
