SUNYNet - Velo Cloud SD-WAN Networking

Service Overview:

  • Campus and SUNYNet Team discuss business needs and cooperatively develop an implementation plan to provide secure communications between SUNY Campuses and offices.
  • SUNYNet offers a series of VMware VeloCloud devices provisioned and supported by SUNYNet that will act as a service endpoint.
  • Monitoring of the operational health and utilization of the device is provided with the option of alerting the campus when we are unable to reach their network.
  • A wide array of options to customize the service and create a best fit for SUNYNet and the campus IT department.

Benefits:

  • Cloud VPN- operates a distributed network of gateways deployed around the world. Gateways optimize data paths from Edge devices to applications in the cloud, branches and data centers along with the ability to deliver network services to and from the cloud through service insertion.
  • SD-WAN Orchestrator (VCO)- Administration, management and support for the SUNYNet-provisioned device is all performed by the SUNYNet NOC and, optionally, may be co-managed by campus IT.
  • Dynamic Multi-Path Optimization (DMPO)- DMPO provides automatic link monitoring and per-packet traffic steering, auto-detection of provider and auto-configuration of link characteristics, routing and QOS settings. DMPO delivers sub-second blackout and brownout protection to improve application availability.
  • Optimize Access to SaaS and Cloud- All traffic traversing the overlay tunnel (VCMP) gets the benefit of Dynamic Multi-Path Optimization (DMPO).
  • Application Visibility- Recognition and classification of 2,500+ applications and sub-applications without the need to deploy separate hardware or software probes within each branch location. The solution intelligently learns applications and adds them to the cloud-based application database.
