SD-WAN

SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) is a technology that simplifies and virtualizes network connectivity, enabling enterprises to manage and optimize wide area networks (WANs) through software rather than relying solely on physical hardware.

SD-WAN with EarthNet NaaS Characteristics

NaaS (Network-as-a-Service)‌ is a ‌cloud computing model‌. In this model, ‌enterprises do not need to own or manage their own physical infrastructure‌; instead, they ‌access and use network services via subscription‌.


NaaS offers the usage-based billing flexibility and scalable capabilities  according to changing business needs. It enables comprehensive monitoring and management of network services, along with usage tracking and billing. Services can be provisioned, deployed, and co-managed on an on-demand basis.

NaaS encompasses a broad spectrum of offerings, including managed Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WAN), network access (encompassing wireless connectivity), security services, and unified communications solutions—all of which can be deployed either in public cloud environments or on virtualized customer premise equipment (VCPE). As innovation accelerates, most enterprises are becoming more keenly aware that the time costs required to build and maintain proprietary network infrastructure is no longer feasible.

Why they choose EarthNet Managed SD-WAN Service

With the rapid development of the SD-WAN industry in recent years, Earth Network has launched a managed SD-WAN Solutions based on multi-outlet link management, including MPLS lease lines, ordinary PON/DSL Internet connections, 4G/5G wireless networks, etc., making full use of multiple chains. In the case of channel bandwidth, maximize the quality of service; by measuring the link delay, packet loss and other qualities of multiple outlets in real time, applications with different quality and bandwidth requirements are scheduled to the best outlet, and fault switching is performed quickly.

1Fully-automatic Provisioning ( ZTP-Zero Touch Provisioning )

Through preset certificates and a simple boot process, SDWAN-Edge will authenticate with the SD-WAN controller after accessing any operator's Internet network, and establish a connection immediately after passing the authentication, and Controller will push the user's pre-programmed configuration.


2Centralized Management and Entire Network State Visualization

EarthNetwork provides customers with a unified management platform to help customers manage each branch device in a one-stop manner. Through the unified management platform, customers can self-operate any online SDWAN-Edge, and help operation and maintenance personnel obtain real-time network topology, node status, and link status. And other information.


3Traffic Identification and Flexible Tuning

Through the data interaction between SDWAN-Edge and Controller, it can help customers statistically analyze various network traffic in the existing network.Customers can plan and adjust the configuration ratio of each traffic according to the statistical analysis results.


4Integration of Various Professional Equipment Functions

EarthNetwork SDWAN-Edge is a multi-purpose and multi-functional intelligent router, which integrates basic network equipment functions such as routing, switching, QOS, traffic scheduling, firewall, etc., and also integrates many management application services, such as basic behavior control, intelligent alarms System, Log Management system, etc.;


5Cost Controllable

Equipment Saving Cost: because SDWAN-Edge equipment integrates the functions of many professional equipment, enterprises do not need to purchase professional equipment for special applications (for example: firewall, traffic analysis, Automatic Alarm system);

Cost of Enterprise IT Maintenance: due to the use of an intelligent controller platform, enables enterprise IT to monitor the overall network operation in an integrated platform, without having to check each function according to the traditional model;

Line Cost: using Internet Overlay mode to replace the original dedicated line, greatly reducing corporate line expenses.


6Diversity of Access Methods and High Availability of Network Services

EarthNetwork provides a backbone network with high redundancy, high bandwidth, and low latency for user network access and network construction;

Customers can choose to use Internet encapsulated secure tunnel mode, LTE encapsulated secure tunnel mode, dedicated line connection mode or multi-link hybrid access method to connect to the EarthNetwork backbone network;

Ensure that customers have two virtual links that can be based on Internet / LTE encapsulated encrypted tunnels to connect to different access points all the time.
