BRISBANE TECHNOLOGY PARK, AUSTRALIA

Australia’s leading WiMAX & broadband microwave technology distributor, Wi-MAN Pty Ltd, has assisted Netintact (& its new parent, Procera Networks) to sign a Strategic Alliance with Wi-MAN’s mesh wireless partner, SkyPilot Networks Inc:

"Procera Networks Partners with Leading Wireless Mesh Network Provider SkyPilot To Deliver Carrier-Class, Broadband Internet Services
Procera® Networks, Inc.

Managing Director of Wi-MAN, Paul Wallace commented “After extensive investigation of most of the better known QoS & shaping solutions around, including Packeteer, Allot’s NetEnforcer & Cisco, we were convinced that PacketLogic was easily the best solution available for our ‘access & backhaul’ wireless carrier customers. The deep packet inspection capabilities of PacketLogic together with their professional & prompt ‘near factory’ support make PacketLogic one of those ‘once in ten years’ type of solutions” “We went to work with our major SkyPilot customer in QLD, Mackay Computer Services and a SkyPilot factory engineer. We soon discovered that PacketLogic's ability to manage encrypted Bittorrent sessions is an absolute must for any carrier, whether wired, wireless or both! If it’s good enough for MCS, Austar & Optus, then I’d imagine it’s the right solution for just about every IP carrier!”

Also suitable for campuses, private schools & large enterprises, PacketLogic represents a ‘return on Investment’ case that can see it pay for itself, sometime in as little as four months. Just as important is Packetlogic’s ability to prioritise VoIP packets, Metaframe packets or in fact, just about any kind of packets, whether vendor based or proprietary application based. You also don’t need to gain an advanced diploma to know how to operate this solution. It’s really very intuitive!

PacketLogic by Procera Networks

PacketLogic is a modular Traffic Management System that contains Surveillance, Firewall, Traffic Shaping, Statistics and NetAccess. The modules can be combined according to customer requirements and demand. The only mandatory module is Surveillance.

The combination of functionality is based on the Netintact process Monitor-Analyze-Optimize. A network administrator has to continuously monitor and analyse the traffic in order to optimize it based on accurate and precise information. Traffic is a more common reason for communication problems than infrastructure.

The objective is best possible utilization of available bandwidth. The visible result is a better user experience, a lower investment in additional bandwidth and quality assurance on performance and business critical traffic like business systems, IP telephony and streaming services. The optimization process is a necessity today when traffic patterns and user behaviour on the Internet are rapidly changing due to more users going online and more functionality migrating to IP as communication carrier.

PacketLogic utilizes the migration from Best Effort to Quality of Service (QoS).

PacketLogic has a technical design, features and capacity like no other Traffic Management System. All traffic is identified based on content versus communication port. This is known as real Layer 7 identification. Layer 7 identification is a necessity today when most client software, like P2P filesharing, is customizable to communicate over any given port to avoid traditional port-based firewalls and traffic management systems.

PacketLogic is a client-server solution. All modules are managed by an easy-to-use client application that is available for Windows and Linux. For client-server communication PacketLogic employs Netintact´s own high security encryption layer, which uses widely used and proved secure encryption methods. The admin network interface of the PacketLogic can be connected to an administration network (DMZ) or make remote administration possible over the Internet, e.g. from a Network Operating Centre (NOC).

What is your main objective?
·          Limit traffic peaks of leeching applications
·          Apply a corporate Internet policy
·          Postpone an investment in additional bandwidth
·          Get accurate support data in real-time
·          Manage abuse
·          Provision bandwidth and/or services/applications to users
·          Implement new business and pricing models (ISP)
·          Identify improper user behaviour and bandwidth leachers
·          Make your network service provider independent
·          Enable Triple Play
