Centralized Management Reduces Total Cost of Ownership
In order for organizations to make the most of the Exinda WAN optimization appliance, Exinda provides an optional global management interface for managing the Exinda appliance or multiple appliances distributed throughout the network. Exinda Service Delivery Point (SDP) provides network managers and IT staff with secure, password-protected access to this global management tool using only a standard Web browser and Internet connection.
The SDP global management interface provides full visibility into how applications are performing over the WAN via customized, user-friendly, graphical reports. whether hosted at the customer site or accessed via the Web using a hosted software as a service (SaaS) model, SDP equips network managers and IT staff with critical information such as network utilization, top applications and top URLs accessed. With this information, network managers can control policies to fully optimize the network regardless of the number of remote sites. The management interface also includes self-management capabilities for centrally installing, configuring, patching and monitoring Exinda appliances.
SDP puts all of Exinda’s advanced network visibility, control and optimization capabilities at the network administrator’s fingertips. It also offers significant cost savings by reducing network operating costs, simplifying common network control and optimization tasks and lowering total cost of ownership (TCO).
SDP makes it easy for administrators to run reports for individual Exinda appliances or aggregated reports for a global view of all appliances across the network.
