SD-WAN INFORMATION
Redundant Internet Equipment
What is SD-WAN?
SD-WAN is the technology which stands for “software defined wide area network). It is the name for it but what it means to you is when you have multiple ISP (internet service providers), your organization will always be utilizing all subscribed ISPs. This service provides Failover Internet Service.
What can SD-WAN do for my organization?
For example, you subscribe to ISP#1 and ISP#2. When everything is running, your organization is utilizing both internet service providers. When there is an outage with ISP #2, your users will never know since all the traffic would be directed to ISP#1. After ISP#2 service is restored, your organization is utilizing both ISP services again. With SD-WAN, Failover Internet Service, and multiple ISP’s, it can prevent downtime.
Is it possible to have 2 ISP and get also a 4G/5G backup?
There are some rare circumstances whereas both ISPs can have an outage. If you wanted to have another backup, we always recommend a 4G/5G backup. Essentially, in this example, you would have 3 internet service providers to prevent downtime.
Why would I need a backup internet?
As technology progresses and our reliance on internet connected device increases, backup internet becomes necessary to your business practice. Just as we need battery backups to prevent for electrical interruptions, we need backup for our internet connections.
In most situations, your primary internet connected devices are a combination of priority and secondary devices which depend on the internet.
Priority Devices:
- > VoIP phones
- > Internet Browsing
- > Cloud services
Secondary Devices:
- > Mobile Phones
- > Tablets
- > Printers
- > IoT devices
