Say goodbye to traditional Networking, embrace SD-WAN solution.

Traditional networking solutions based on conventional routers are not cloud-friendly orientation. The networking protocols are distributed among the devices (routers, switches, and middleboxes), each device has to be configured separately which is prone to errors, and many configuration changes are done manually. Therefore, traditional networking solutions request a large number of resources and expertise.

Unlike the old traditional router-centric WAN architecture, a Software-defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) is a virtual WAN architecture that allows enterprises to leverage any combination of transport services – including MPLS, LTE and broadband internet services – to securely connect users to applications. The SD-WAN solution is designed to fully support applications hosted in On-premise data centers, public or private clouds and SaaS solutions such as Workday, Office365, and Dropbox, while delivering the highest levels of application performance.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the needs of work from home and study at home is growing rapidly, and enterprises or companies need to contribute its valuable resources to deploy reliable network environments to satisfy these needs. SD-WAN solutions are the best solutions to meet these needs because SD-WAN solutions are abstracted from its hardware, creating a virtualized network overlay. Operators can remotely manage and quickly scale this overlay, which can span over large geographical distances; it is more flexible and available than standard WANs or traditional networking solutions.

In order to help customers to deal with the dilemma, and to fulfill the huge needs of SD-WAN white-box solutions, Acrosser Technology, a leading SD-WAN appliance manufacturer in Taiwan, decided to offer a special promotion which including Acrosser’s 2 brand new Intel ®Denverton Platform SD-WAN white-box solution- AND-DNV3N3 and ANR--DNV3N3 series, which are perfect for SD-WAN router, SD-WAN switch, SD-WAN controller and v/uCPE and others.

AND--DNV3N3-4C, a desktop SD-WAN white-box solution powered by Intel® Atom® C3558 Denverton-NS 4 cores CPU, is a supplemental product for ANR--DNV3N3-4C.

AND--DNV3N3-4C supports 3 important features for SD-WAN white-box:

●1. It supports SR-IOV which can create more virtual I/O devices than physical ones.

●2. It supports an open software-DPDK which is the Data Plane Development Kit that consists of libraries to accelerate packet processing workloads running on a wide variety of CPU architectures.

●3. It supports QAT which can provide extended accelerated encryption and compression services by offloading the actual encryption and compression request(s) to the hardware QuickAssist accelerators, which are more efficient in terms of cost and power than general purpose CPUs for those specific compute-intensive workloads.

With these features, AND--DNV3N3-4C is an excellent choice for SOHO, SMB, or branch offices and perfect for vCPE/SD-WAN of SDN/NFV structure as well. In addition to AND--DNV3N3-4C, ANR--DNV3N3-8C is a rackmount SD-WAN white-box with Intel Atom C3758 Denverton-NS 8 core CPU and built-in 4 x SFP+, and also included these 3 important features which mentioned above. Based on our product position, ANR--DNV3N3-8C is the best fit for branch or SME offices for the SD-WAN solution.

Without a doubt, SD-WAN solutions will increase business productivity and application performance, and eventually reduced costs for IT simultaneously.

Acrosser Technology is helping enterprises provide remote working environments in coronavirus crisis, companies and institutions that have already moved to SD-WAN are finding it easier to implement remote working/studying in the face of the coronavirus epidemic and users have more capacity at home than in their offices. With the SD-WAN platform, companies and institutions are getting better quality even for those users who are still on site, and it’s cheaper than MPLS.
