Breakthrough Application Performance and Lower IT
Costs
WANJet delivers unrivaled application performance and reduced IT
expenses. At the heart of WANJet is the F5 Session Matrix™, a
networking technology that is essential to application
performance on the WAN. Operating at Layer 5 of the OSI
reference model, the Session Matrix gives WANJet full
application knowledge and network awareness. It integrates key
performance technologies, including Transparent Data Reduction™,
adaptive TCP optimization, encryption, and quality of service
that are applied to application streams.
Expands WAN Capacity and
Application Throughput

Expands WAN capacity up to
500 times |
F5 Transparent Data
Reduction (TDR) is a revolutionary networking technology
that ensures high-speed application performance and
reduces the amount of data transferred over the WAN by
up to 95%. TDR delivers significantly more bandwidth for
applications and effectively expands WAN capacity above
specified rates. |
Eliminates Negative Effects of Distance
When application performance suffers, IT managers often assume
that adding bandwidth will solve the problem. Unfortunately,
because of the way the TCP protocol works, adding bandwidth is
often ineffective. TCP throughput degrades significantly on the
WAN, particularly on high-latency, intercontinental links.
To overcome these inherent
protocol limitations, WANJet employs adaptive TCP optimization
(which combines session-level application awareness, persistent
tunnels, selective acknowledgements, error correction, and
optimized TCP windows) to fully utilize available bandwidth.
This enables WANJet to adapt, in real time, to the latency,
packet loss, and congestion characteristics of WAN links, and
accelerate virtually all application traffic.
Makes the WAN Faster and Safer
With WANJet’s site-to-site SSL encryption, IT managers no longer
need to choose between fast and safe. Applications communicate
at high speed, over any WAN, in full privacy. Users experience
transparent operation and high speed, IT managers rest easy
knowing that corporate data is protected, and organizations
ensure compliance with regulations such as HIPAA and Sarbanes
Oxley.
Ensures Predictable Performance
WANJet’s QoS feature lets IT managers tune their global networks
for round-the-clock application performance. IT resources are
logically grouped and managed according to business rules. As a
result, bandwidth is preserved for applications like VoIP and
users experience predictable application performance, regardless
of WAN conditions, time of day, or geographical location.
Provides Insight to WAN/Application Behavior
| WANJet includes an
intuitive, web-based administration and management
interface. Administrators can manage appliances and
perform a wide variety of system level tasks such as
creating custom optimization policies, diagnosing and
fixing network connectivity issues, viewing real-time
traffic flows and exporting detailed performance
statistics. WANJet web administration compliments F5
Enterprise Management, which provides the ability to
analyze the interaction of WAN characteristics and
application behavior on a fine-grained basis. |
