Assuring Delivery Of Web Applications For Bottom Line Results

Data center simplification and the growing migration to web-enabled applications are driving the need for a new class of multi-function optimization devices. The Stampede FX-1000 Series combines both one-sided application delivery and two-sided WAN optimization into a single platform. The FX1000 Series delivers unprecedented application performance, optimization, transparency, availability and management for existing networks.

Productivity and Performance

The Stampede FX Series WAN optimization improves access to your applications by reducing the amount of data transferred on the link through use of various compression and caching schemes as well as accelerating reliable protocols.

FX-1000 Accelerator Interface

Traffic Shaping with ACM Tracking

Traffic is classified and prioritized by protocol, source/destination subnets, source/destination ports, VLAN, and DSCP bits. Classified traffic is then shaped to the link rate based upon priority, CIR and MIR. Link rate is either configured at setup or optionally read from the modem in real time. Reading from the modem in real time allows the output rate to track the actual link rate for an ACM modem, which changes based upon changing link conditions. While it is possible to configure this with other modems, it is designed to work with the CDM-750 and CDM-625 modems. This feature is available as either stand-alone, or as part of the full WAN optimization product.

Transparent Assured Delivery

With flexible options for in-line or Cisco’s Web Cache Communication Protocol (WCCP), the FX Series devices deliver unprecedented transparent optimization. End-to-end assurance is maintained for all applications providing complete transparency and the ability for existing Quality of Service (QoS) and network visibility management programs to continue monitoring the health of your network.

Optimize VLAN Trunked Data

All appropriate Layer 5 and Layer 7 optimizations are available for tagged VLAN data, preserving or recreating the VLAN tags for optimized traffic. This includes HTTP caching as well as de-duplication. Caches are maintained by appliance and by VLAN. Appropriate traffic can be shared between VLANs on the same appliance. In addition, the FX-1010 will support up to 8 LAN ports, each of which is tagged and passed to the WAN trunk.

Multicator

The FX Series supports a reliable multicast. This is designed to work in a mesh network, but will also work in a hub/spoke network. In the mesh, any device can be a transmitter with the remaining devices being receivers. Multiple devices can be transmitters. The transmitter function is time shared, with a second device being given permission to transmit after the first is complete. This can work in a hub-spoke network where typically the ADC would be the transmitter, although this is not required. The process is to FTP a file from the client into the transmitter’s inbox, that file is transmitted reliably in a multicast to all of the receivers. Once transmitted, the receivers FTP the file to a specified server.

Availability

Business critical applications requiring 24/7 availability will always perform optimally no matter how fast your organization grows. The Stampede FX platforms support deployments in a 1+1 configuration. Simply add additional FX devices as needed for increased scalability or failover protection. “High Availability” is available for the remotes and the ADC in either routed or in path configurations.

Management

The FX platforms provide total insight through real-time information including over 100 real-time statistics providing extensive details on all inbound and outbound traffic. Historical data for days or months are easily viewed via online graphs, simplifying capacity planning, trending, network issues, and application troubleshooting. Management information can be obtained via an intuitive Web GUI or SNMP. The updating for the FX Series Remotes is automatic. The FX Series remotes poll the FX Series ADC for updates. When the ADC is updated; each remote will download the update and automatically update itself.

Flexibility

The FX Series platforms provide a comprehensive range of flexible options for total transparent 24/7 operation within your existing or growing network infrastructure. No matter what your application acceleration or WAN optimization requirements are today or in the future, the FX Series platform solutions will handle all your business critical applications with ease. Whether your installation requires small, medium or large branches or the consolidation of multiple remote or enterprise data centers, We have the solution for your organization’s needs.
