Communications, the leading provider of deep packet inspection Analyzing network traffic to discover the type of application that sent the data. In order to prioritize traffic or filter out unwanted data, deep packet inspection can differentiate data, such as video, audio, chat, voice over IP (VoIP), e-mail and Web. (DPI (Dots Per Inch) The measurement of the resolution of display and printing systems. A typical CRT screen provides 96 dpi, which provides 9,216 dots per square inch (96x96). Flat panel displays from 110 to 200 dpi have also been developed. ) technology for service optimization, today launched two new models in its NetEnforcer AC-800 series of traffic management devices--the AC-804 and AC-808. The devices are designed for small to mid-sized service providers and medium to large enterprises. Using deep packet inspection (DPI) technology, the devices give network managers an unsurpassed level of visibility into the network to monitor and control traffic and user behavior. "Thanks to Allot, we have a tool that allows us to gain visibility of our network at the application level as well as control our internet traffic Internet traffic is the flow of data around the Internet. It includes web traffic, which is the amount of that data that is related to the World Wide Web, along with the traffic from other major uses of the Internet, such as electronic mail and peer-to-peer networks. effectively," said Vicente Giles, communications director for the University of Malaga. "With more insight in to what is running on our network, we're able to offer our students and staff exceptional Quality of Service and performance." The AC-804 and AC-808 models feature four and eight Gigabit Ethernet An Ethernet standard that transmits at 1 Gbps. Used mostly to connect high-end workstations and servers as well as for network backbones, Gigabit Ethernet transmits full duplex from point to point using switches and half duplex in a shared environment (CSMA/CD) using a hub. ports respectively, providing flexible support for two or four network links. Both models are available in a range of operation speeds with either copper or fiber-optic interfaces. Additionally, both devices are equipped with Allot's new NetXplorer centralized management capability, which provides end-to-end visibility and in-depth analysis of bandwidth usage per application and per user. Working together, NetEnforcer AC-804/808 and NetXplorer deliver the network business intelligence and QoS control that operators need to guarantee the delivery and performance of VoIP, streaming video A one-way video transmission over a data network. It is widely used on the Web as well as company networks to play video clips and video broadcasts. Computers in home networks stream video to digital media hubs connected to a home theater. , and a host of other high-bandwidth services. The ability of the AC-804 and AC-808 to support multiple Ethernet links in one device makes it easier to implement traffic management within and across segmented networks (such as those with DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) A middle ground between an organization's trusted internal network and an untrusted, external network such as the Internet. Also called a "perimeter network," the DMZ is a subnetwork (subnet) that may sit between firewalls or off one leg of a subnets), meshed networks, and other topologies. It also enables the configuration of flexible load-sharing and robust redundancy schemes to ensure uninterrupted visibility, monitoring and control at critical junctures in the network. "Unlike adding bandwidth or accelerating packets on a network, Allot helps network administrators see what's actually on the network, and use that intelligent insight to manage traffic according to according to prep. 1.
