Virtualization addresses IT’s most pressing challenge: the infrastructure sprawl that compels IT departments to channel 70 percent of their budget into maintenance, leaving scant resources for business-building innovation. The difficulty stems from the architecture of today’s x86 computers: they’re designed to run just one operating system (OS) and application at a time. As a result, even small data centers must deploy many servers, each operating at just 5–15 percent of capacity—highly inefficient by any standard.

For each VPN tunnel, both AH and ESP tunnel sessions are installed on Services Processing Units (SPUs) and the control plane. Tunnel sessions are updated with the 7 protocol on is completed. For SRX5400, SRX5600, and SRX5800 devices, tunnel sessions on anchor SPUs are updated with the protocol while non-anchor SPUs retain ESP and AH tunnel sessions. ESP and AH tunnel sessions are displayed in the outputs.

As demand for goods peaks, supply chain instability and labor shortage are forcing manufacturers to become more efficient and find new ways to maximize productivity. Manufacturers are accelerating their path to digitalization or Industry 4.0, to improve automation and be more competitive. Additionally, with the digitalization of their operations, manufacturing companies are increasingly moving their applications to the cloud for more agility and to enable their employees to work-from-anywhere. The number of IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) devices is skyrocketing, while IT and OT (operational technology) networks are converging, raising concerns about cybersecurity risks.

Satellite networks offer their customers several advantages over other types of connectivity. They are easily deployed, reliable, and allow a wide degree of mobility, making them a perfect fit for Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP). They are an essential asset in places where other connectivity methods are not available, such as oil rigs, vessels, or even planes. However, they have several characteristics that make them harder to manage when compared to other kinds of networks. This document will discuss those challenges and explore how the Versa Operating System (VOS™) can help you extract better performance out of your Satellite links.

Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) is an application-aware service that intelligently routes traffic in real time based on established business policies, along with network quality and availability. SD-WAN is used to connect multiple locations in a network to each other, to a data center, to applications and data in the cloud, or to SaaS platforms. Leveraging multiple, cost-effective access types at each location in an active-active configuration, an SD-WAN network routes application traffic over the best-performing network elements in real time and ensures automated failover for resiliency.
