Bandwidth Consumption Issue

Most network environments today have hundreds of applications running at any given time. They all have different management issues, depending on the application type. In addition, P2P and malicious traffic can consume essential bandwidth needed to power business applications. And another big issue is data leak prevention today. The figure below shows that P2P applications account from anywhere between 50 percent and 90 percent of all Internet traffic - leading the way is Thunder and BitTorrent, which have surpassed eDonkey as the P2P protocol of choice. Users' desire for video is affecting the Internet: with the surge in traffic to YouTube and other video sites.

Meanwhile, how can you prevent your critical information leak via IM, Web mail or VPN tunneling applications? What can you do when your network under DOS attack? Do you know how much WAN bandwidth is consumed by recreational traffic such as online game, YouTube, and P2P? How can you prioritize bandwidth use to align network resources with business objectives? BroadWeb offers a variety of QoS technologies.

Application-Visible QoS

QoS results from the interaction of user demands, application behavior, and the resources the behavior requires. The more applications you know, the more you could control your QoS. BroadWeb QoS solution makes your applications bandwidth management requirements and optimizes the use of your bandwidth with these features:

  • Supporting 800+ applications and behaviors
  • Layer7-based Bandwidth management
  • Accurately identify the encrypted application flows, like Skype, Share, and SoftEther
  • Update IPS/AV/Application signatures automatically

Application Bandwidth Control: Scenarios

         1. Block all P2P/Streaming traffic
         2. Stop the malicious bandwidth consumption
         3. Guarding HTTP/FTP/Mail/… services and limit P2P traffic to, say, 20% of total bandwidth
         4. Allow some VIPs do whatever they want, and limit the bandwidth usage of the rest staff…
         5. Enabling the bandwidth control during office time only.

BroadWeb QoS solution combines numerous features to ensure available bandwidth from stop malicious traffic and unwanted applications. By malicious traffic detection and Layer7-based bandwidth shaping, BroadWeb QoS solution provides optimal access to internet. With Layer7-based bandwidth management and Quality of Service features, the BroadWeb QoS gives you control over how your bandwidth is used. It can also help cut costs by getting more use of existing bandwidth.
