Not Smart Enough

New Demands: Voice, Video

Reactive

No Ability to Fix

Blue Coat Visibility – Overcome Limits

Application View, Fix Problems & Deliver ROI

• Layer 7+ Autodiscovers 600+ Applications• Find elusive recreation: iTunes, YouTube, etc. • Break down compound Enterprise apps: SAP, Oracle, Citrix

Classification

• Real traffic, in real time for voice and video conf (RTP)• Quality (MOS, rFactor) and Utilization (peak & average)• Jitter, delay, loss

Voice Quality

• Track end user experience – network delay, server delay• Set baselines and exception thresholds• Alert, alarm & integrate: SNMP, XML, Email

Proactive Response Time Monitoring

• Apply Powerful QOS & Compression • Contain recreation, protect mission critical

Services/Applications• Integrate with acceleration devices like ProxySG

Fix Problems

PacketShaper: Bandwidth Management

•Divide user and application traffic into Classes

•Guarantee min and/or max bandwidth for a class

•Align traffic classes to business priorities

Sales Automation App(SAP/Saleforce) Priority 1

Min 400Kb, Max 800Kb

Voice and Video(RTP) Priority 4

Min 800Kb, Max 1Mb

E-Mail (SMTP/POP)Priority 2Min 100Kb, Max 400Kb

General Web Surfing (HTTP)Priority 3Min 0Kb, Max 200Kb

Proper Partitioning of Bandwidth is important to achieve proper utilization of company resource (WAN/Internet connection)

Deploying PacketShaper for a Successful Video Conferencing/VoIP

Video Conferencing – The New Drivers

• Real Time Collaboration

– Minimize costs (travel)

– Minimize carbon footprint

– Increase productivity

– Increase quality of life

• High Quality

– Replicates “in-person” experience
