Figure 2 | Exinda features industry-leading Microsoft Active Directory Integration that allows organizations to "follow the user" by tracking network and application usage by Active Directory User Name. Network administrators can apply optimization policies to active Directory users or groups for precise control.
Take Charge of the Network and Applications with Precise Control
Based on a thorough understanding of what is happening on the WAN, organizations are now ready to take control of the network with Exinda. The Exinda appliance provides network managers and administrators with the ability to set policies to manage and control WAN and Internet traffic. With Exinda, organizations can "fair share" bandwidth among various users, groups and applications while restricting unwanted recreational traffic. To keep low-priority traffic from interfering with WAN performance and application response times, Exinda allows you to detect evasive applications, limit the bandwidth allotted to P2P traffic or eliminate some types of recreational traffic altogether.
Figure 3 | Basic and Advanced User Interface Options allow Exinda users to choose the level of detail presented in the User Interface and easily toggle between Basic and Advanced interfaces. The Exinda Basic Web User Interface is designed for simplified operations and management of devices, whereas the Advanced interface provides more advanced policy-based traffic control.
Keep the WAN Running in an Optimal State
Exinda combines sophisticated traffic optimization with intelligent acceleration. The Exinda WAN optimization appliance provides detailed application classification and prioritization, granular policy-based traffic control and selective TCP and application acceleration. With Exinda, organizations can dramatically improve application response times, increase traffic throughput and reduce the effects of latency on the network. Exinda enables organizations to continually optimize the network and achieve near LAN-like application performance across the WAN.
Before Optimization
After Optimization
Figure 4 | Exinda Benefits Reports illustrate the positive impact that optimizations policies have on the network. In this example, recreational Peer-to-Peer traffic had over-run the network until optimization was applied and business critical applications given priority.
