Overcome Challenges with Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN - WAN Optimization & Acceleration

Conventional SD-WAN is just an extension of router functions

  • Conventional SD-WAN is just an extension of router functions
  • "Threshold" and "flow"-based line switching require the quality threshold to be set "manually"
  • User experience cannot be expected to improve beyond contracted line quality
  • In the end, it is necessary to rely on MPLS lines, and it is difficult to completely replace with the Internet

Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN with unique WAN optimization technology is the solution

Path conditioning function (line repair/correction)

  • Improve line quality by repairing and correcting lines at the packet level even for best-effort lines
  • Possible by commercial adoption of broadband lines in enterprise site-to-site WAN
  • Very useful for UDP applications such as voice and video, especially over the Internet
  • Effective regardless of application as it is protocol independent
  • Path conditioning function (line repair/correction)
  • Path conditioning function (line repair/correction)

Link bonding function (logically bundling multiple lines into one)

  • Bundling different line types into one logical line
  • Automatic switching in less than 1 second when one line fails
  • Multiple bonding modes are available, such as reliability-oriented and throughput-oriented.
  • Supports switching to a third line even when the bonding line fails
  • Link bonding function (logically bundling multiple lines into one)

Simultaneous use of path conditioning and link bonding

  • Bundling two or more WAN lines and using them as one main line
  • Furthermore, by using the path conditioning function together, the effective packet loss in the overlay is greatly reduced.
  • It is possible to ensure quality that can withstand corporate use even for consumer broadband lines
  • Simultaneous use of path conditioning and link bonding

WAN acceleration function is also implemented in SD-WAN! “Unique feature Boost”

Application acceleration option “Boost” available on demand

  1. Protocol level acceleration such as TCP
  2. Data deduplication/compression
  • Application acceleration option “Boost” available on demand

Verification of Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Acceleration Capabilities

Data reduction rate (ratio between LAN side and WAN side with Boost): 99.6% *

  • Validation of Silver Peak acceleration function
