Micro Edge 1.1

Overview

Micro Edge 1.1 is the first major software release.

Major Features

Application-based Routing

Micro Edge makes first packet routing decisions, based on specific application or categories of network traffic.

WAN Optimization

Traffic shaping and Quality of Service prioritizes business critical traffic across WAN Links.

Real-time Link Performance Monitoring

Jitter, packet loss, latency and throughput of each link are continually measured to ensure applications can be routed over the best performing links for their needs.

Dynamic Path Selection

Routing decisions are made in real-time based on actual current link performance of packet-loss, latency and jitter conditions, as well as available bandwidth.

Multiple Internet Pathways

Multiple WANs as well as LTE connectivity can be used as primary or failover links. Application based routing can optimize performance over LTE and hard-wired links.

Configurable Performance Thresholds

Routing can be configured at the application level with failover conditions specified using limits for desired maximum packet loss, or latency thresholds.

Automated Link Failover

Network traffic will be routed to the next best performing link when a link fails, or fails to meet performance requirements.

Zero-Touch Provisioning

Network administrators can remotely set up and configure Micro Edge without having to be on site. Automatic upgrades ensure all appliances are kept up to date with the latest security updates and enhancements.

Centralized Management

One or many Micro Edge appliances can be managed from Edge Threat Management's cloud based ETM Dashboard, accessible from any browser. Full visibility of all deployments enables administrators to view appliance network status, important events, reporting data and push global configuration.
