In the digital age, with the emergence of innovative applications in various industries, the network is gradually facing the new requirements of wireless, iot and cloud. As networks become more and more complex, factors such as cost reduction and efficiency increase, mobile office, Internet of everything trend, and IPv6 applications are gradually driving LAN-WAN convergence. Liu Chao shared: Today, more and more enterprises begin to improve the management efficiency of WAN and reduce management costs through SD-WAN, and some forward-looking IT leaders began to consider unified LAN/WAN management, which will further improve the efficiency of the overall network, and also lay the foundation for the evolution of SASE based on software definition, zero trust, edge cloud.
The optical LAN-WAN converged network solution supports rapid deployment, diversified application scenarios, remote operation and maintenance, and daily monitoring of end-to-end information (terminals, devices, alarms, sites & topologies, and Wans). It provides high-quality, convenient, and comprehensive integrated intelligent network services for various industries, and supports the cloud and diversified development of enterprises.
With the end of the current China SD-WAN Summit, in the future, Guanglian will continue to deepen its efforts in the field of SD-WAN, continuously consolidate the technical foundation, optimize intelligent network services, provide more comprehensive, systematic and high-quality intelligent network services for enterprise customers in thousands of industries, and help enhance their own digital capabilities and key competitiveness. Speed up the new era of the Internet of everything.
