The NetEnforcer AC-2520 and AC-2540 bandwidth management devices deliver 5 Gbps throughput and are especially suitable for large broadband carriers and service provider networks.

These powerful devices provide up to 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports and are designed to work in a fully-redundant network topology for extreme reliability. Each device supports throughput rates of up to 5 Gbps and multiple devices can be easily clustered to provide 10 Gigabit per second throughput. Each device manages up to 160,000 subscribers and 4 million flows in a single platform.

Like all Allot NetEnforcer devices, the AC-2500 uses unsurpassed deep packet inspection (DPI) and QoS enforcement capabilities to enable real-time traffic monitoring and dynamic service control according to preset policies - per application and per user. The information provided by deep packet inspection is critical for providers looking to optimize network speed, content delivery and performance of subscriber services on the network.

■ Advanced signature and behavior-based recognition of P2P, VoIP, streaming and gaming applications

■ Fail-safe performance with external hardware bypass and full redundancy support

Extensive Range of Features
● Network-wide visibility using DPI technology for in-depth analysis, including identification of traffic trends and drilling down to the individual device, user or application level for real-time troubleshooting.

● Intuitive interface which provides both a logical network-wide perspective together with the power to quickly navigate down to the device, user or application level.

● Monitoring and analysis, including in-depth analysis down to single user sessions and single applications, real-time monitoring, short-term monitoring for the collection of highly granular information, and storage of network activities in a high resolution data warehouse.

● Insightful reporting of information in real time and over time for evaluation of trends and accurate capacity planning, and for tracking usage for accounting or charge-back purposes using volume-based reports in hundreds of customizable formats.

● Building policies to enable the rapid deployment of services or service changes and automatic distribution of configurations and changes to all managed NetEnforcer units.

● Configuration and policy provisioning of managed NetEnforcers without logging into each device.

● Frontline security enabling easy detection of potential DoS/DDoS attacks or network-born security attacks, setting of thresholds, generation of alarms, and automatic execution of corrective actions.

● Intelligent alarms about abnormal events and automatically invoke corrective actions before problems become costly.

Allot NetXplorer management software provides a consolidated picture of all traffic on the network. This centralized management system works in harmony with NetEnforcer devices in the network to provide the network business intelligence that is needed for IP service optimization. Its intuitive interface, rich functionality, and wide array of on-demand reports help network operators:

NetXplorer provides the necessary in-depth insight and analysis you need to understand your network and directly link between business goals and network traffic and behavior. Facilitating the decision-making process and streamlining network efficiency, NetXplorer is a highly scalable system that uses a single, easy-to-use GUI to deliver unsurpassed network analysis suitable for short-term network troubleshooting or for understanding long-term trend and usage patterns. Control capabilities include simultaneous provisioning of policies and configuration, updating and distribution of data to all managed Allot NetEnforcer devices.

Integrated in NetEnforcer, the NetXplorer management software achieves a level of network intelligence that ensures optimal network performance, security and management, and caters to application, user and subscriber needs.

► For Service Providers, NetXplorer provides the visibility and tools that deliver traffic and subscriber information and control in broadband networks. This is particularly important in controlling operation costs, reducing subscriber churn, increasing revenues (ARPU) and providing new, differentiated services.

► For Enterprises, NetXplorer provides network visibility that extends beyond the infrastructure and enables you to link business policies to specific network actions, which is particularly important to ensure mission-critical applications and contain network costs.

NetXplorer is based on a highly-scalable architecture which powers the monitoring of all NetEnforcer devices from a single, intuitive user interface. A single installation package for Windows XP and Windows 2003 servers, system architecture consists of three layers:

► The Client Layer is the NetXplorer GUI application, comprising different clients that connect to the NetXplorer Server.

► The Server Layer incorporates the actual NetXplorer application, including the database. Managing and communicating with the different clients that access the system, it facilitates NetEnforcer configuration, policy provisioning, alarms, monitoring and reporting. The NetXplorer also includes an integrated data collector, which streamlines the required collection of data from the managed NetEnforcer devices.

► The Agent Layer is an optional component which enables the NetEnforcer to be managed by the NetXplorer and support all management functions.
