Telstra Managed SD-WAN

Optimise performance with an agile WAN

Deliver great user experiences and better application performance, with a managed software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN).

Traditional WANs are complex, time-consuming to manage and costly to upgrade. Managed SD-WAN gives you the agility to respond to changing demands. By routing traffic over different network paths, depending on priorities, you can empower productive teams, optimise application performance and minimise service disruptions.

Key features

Transport agnostic

Distribute WAN traffic securely over carrier services, including IPVPN and broadband, enabling you to route traffic on the most efficient channel without sacrificing application performance.

Central orchestration

Simplify your WAN and deploy faster with centralised control. This feature also provides greater visibility of application traffic, bandwidth usage and device statistics on your network.

Enhanced secure connectivity

Strong encryption techniques and access controls protect your WAN traffic and communication with cloud applications, remote offices or data centres, over both the public Internet and IPVPN.

Application-aware routing

Dynamically forward data packets according to application type, performance, policies and path status. Monitor network performance to fine tune the network for critical services.

Benefits

Improve the experience you offer staff and customers

Fine tune your WAN for better application performance. Prioritise traffic and use bandwidth more efficiently by routing time-sensitive applications over IPVPN while SaaS applications can be directed over the internet.
