| Nowadays, many network administrators are facing a common issue. What applications are running on the network? What kinds of traffic are travelling through the network pipe? How much bandwidth has been utilized by each of them? Are they all legitimate and productive? If not, what can I do about it? And can they be monitored and controlled effectively?
BroadWeb FlowManager is designing for eliminating these problems through the use of application classification and per flow rate control. Every flow through FlowManager system is carefully controlled so that the total traffic capacity for each destination address, each flow class, each VLAN, and each port can be controlled. You can manage the bandwidth consumption and behaviors of various applications, such as Instant Messaging, P2P sharing and streaming, web access, mail, stock, database, and file transfer.
Through continuous policy update, the benefits from this new approach to traffic control are numerous and allow networks to finally support extremely demanding new applications, eliminate the artifact and distortion in voice and video, improve the performance of real-time applications, guarantee capacity for priority applications, relieve networks from the imbalance caused by multi-flow and bandwidth-intensive applications like P2P, and allow each project, department, or application to share a common network without being impacted by the other classes of activities.
