PacketLogic
Zemware provides and deploys solutions for bandwidth management and control based in DPI (Deep Packet Inspection). We are a Procera Networks partner and reseller of the PacketLogic Intelligent Policy Enforcement (IPE) solution. PacketLogic provides network operators fine-grained awareness on the behavior of their network and subscribers, offering sophisticated analysis tools for business planning, and delivering real-time control that enables monetization on their networks. See www.proceranetworks.comThe ZemDHCP server has a Plug and Play interface into PacketLogic. Allowing you to set service per Subscriber and Option-82 ID. The Plug and Play interface is easy to use and allows for the configuration of Shaping, Filtering and Statistics rules. It also provides access to realtime traffic and statistics per Subscriber, switch and port. The solution supports active redundancy.
- Traffic Management, Fair Usage and Congestion Management to delay CAPEX
- Identification of network traffic such as BitTorrent, YouTube, Skype and others
- Time, Application, and Location-based Services
- Topology-aware Peering Bandwidth Control
- Accurate, Fine-grained visibility on network behavior in real-time
- Identify improper user behavior and limit the impact of network attacks
- Implement new business and pricing models
- Enable Quad Play Services through non-disruptive shaping and prioritization technology
Solution Benefits
- High capacity platforms with very low latency (> 20 microsecond with full DPI processing and no shapingg
- True Real-time monitoring with exceptional inspection capabilities
- Best signatures and application support in the industry (over 2000+)
- Best signature update frequency in the industry (14 day updates)
- True DPI Layer 7. No port tainting or assumptions made about traffic, so low risk of false positives
- Intelligent shaping via our Active Queue Management, minimises packet drops and loss, while providing smooth shaping and host fairness
- Shaping any combination of per subnet, per user, per application, and many other parameters
- BGP Integration to enable AS Path route analysis for every connection/flow, providing the ability to shape and report on traffic by AS, and peer links
- Layer 7 firewalling capability, including traffic redirection, HTTP injection, Legal Intercept capabilities (packet capture ability), and extensive logging
- DDoS protection allow setting maximum Rate and Host Connection per second threshold, and customer triggers
- Extensive historical reporting capabilities
- The Python API is provided free of charge and can be downloaded at: http://download.proceranetworks.com/pythonapi/version/
- DPI Engine: Datastream Recognition Definition Language (DRDL) is Procera’s unique DPI technology designed for performance, efficiency, and accuracy
- Classification: True Flow-based classification, operating between Layer 3 to Layer 7
- Categorization: DRDL automatically categorizes applications into logical groupings, including Streaming Media, VoIP, FileSharing, Entertainment, Business Applications, dramatically reducing policy complexity
- Updates: New signature updates released every 14 days. Updates can be installed without affecting uptime or traffic. Gaming get the bandwidth and priority they require
- Accuracy: Designed to reduce misclassification. No assumptions, no port tainting, and no reduced signature sets
- Layer 7 Details: Extracts many Layer 7 headers and properties from each connection to provide granular control over traffic (Layer 7 shaping and filtering)
- Signatures: Supports over 2000 applications, services, and protocol signatures
The PacketLogic Real-Time Enforcement platforms utilize multiple hardware platforms that run the same operating software. Each of the platforms offer consistent feature richness enabled through the different PacketLogic software modules: LiveView, Filtering, Traffic Shaping, and Statistics. The PacketLogic hardware platforms offer a range of configurations from the entry-level 4 Mbps PL5600 through 2 Gbps PL7720. The mid-range PL8720 is a 2RU unit with up to 16Gbps throughput. At the top of the line are the PL8820 - a 30Gbps appliance in a compact 2 RU form factors, and PL10000 series with capacity up to 120Gbps and 10M subscribers per system. It consists of a modular AdvancedTCA (ATCA) chassis solution in two sizes – PL10005 5RU and PL10014 12RU.
