ALLOC8

Alloc8 – X Series Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology combines real-time monitoring, analytics, reports and an intelligent recommendation engine to give network operators the ability to pinpoint the source of congestion and delays to manage demand, not just capacity. It’s no secret that the higher volume of traffic increases communications and network-operating costs. The need to balance your visitor network capacity between recreational users and business use causes network managers to often resort to adding bandwidth, accelerating network traffic or cutting off access to applications. These approaches are short term in nature, not cost effective and contribute to network congestion.

The Alloc8 takes the guesswork out of managing traffic demand. Combining Nomadix’s expertise in bandwidth management with Exinda’s network optimization technology, the Alloc8 – X Series provides network managers and operators a solution for prioritizing critical applications and highly throughput-sensitive applications over others in real time. This allows them to manage their visitor networks’ precious bandwidth resources while giving priority to business customer needs.

WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? WHO’S CAUSING IT?

The first step to solving congestion problems is determining the cause. With the Alloc8 – X Series, network managers get insight into which applications are operating on the network, how applications are performing and the amount of bandwidth being consumed by guests, devices, applications and locations across the network. Once understood, policies can be implemented to limit or prevent bandwidth allocation. Plus, administrators can prioritize how and when individual users, groups, applications and websites consume bandwidth on the network.

WHAT’S GOING ON IN YOUR NETWORK?

Once network managers know the cause of network congestion, the Alloc8 – X Series provides a suite of analytical tools that allows them to implement solutions for their network demand challenges. It provides clear, easy-to-read interactive analytics, purpose-built reports, a recommendation engine and policy-based, traffic-shaping technology tools. This combination of information and tools enables network managers to assess patterns and trends within the network so that potential congestion problems can be addressed before they occur. The Alloc8 – X Series also makes suggestions for policy changes, which enables network teams to diagnose and resolve problems faster – thus improving network performance and guest users’ Internet experiences.

GAIN BACK CONTROL OVER YOUR NETWORK!

Visitor network operators rely heavily upon their networks to drive day-to-day operations while also providing the best guest experience possible. With the Alloc8 – X Series, network managers can determine how much bandwidth is being consumed by Internet use, streaming video and peer-to-peer traffic. If you’re not careful and don’t control the applications using your network, the user experience can degrade and service cost can increase. That’s why we offer a solution that enables you to identify problem users and apply granular policies to control who, and what, can use valuable bandwidth on your network, improving the user experience and saving money in the process.
