Your employees, customers, and visitors should have a great experience at all times. However, with the increasing pressure on the WAN, it is very difficult to continue to provide an excellent experience. In this case, the intelligent WAN will be able to show their talents.
We have combined a state-of-the-art routing platform with all the application optimization and security services you need. Learn how it works. (2 minutes and 9 seconds)
Intelligent WAN can help you migrate to a hybrid WAN architecture without compromising performance or security. How can I do that? This is achieved by the visibility of the traffic passing through the network as a whole and by the automatic targeting of traffic through the best available path.
Add Akamai's intelligent content cache to speed application execution and shun 50-90% of traffic. The security technology embedded in our routing platform is robust, certified and tested in real-world production networks.
These goals can be met without additional overhead in bandwidth. In fact, migrating to a hybrid WAN with Internet services can save money, and many customers achieve a return on investment in less than a year.
With the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller Enterprise Module, Intelligent WAN delivers all the benefits and enables software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) automation.
So it's about mobile devices, cloud apps and video traffic. With an intelligent WAN, you're ready.
Design independent of transmission mode
You should be free to choose the provider combination that best fits your budget and connectivity needs. With Intelligent WAN, you can connect to branch offices with the same design through different transmission options. This deployment consistency simplifies both deployment and ongoing WAN support.
Learn more about transport-independent intelligent WAN design and how we can achieve this with Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) IPsec overlay.
Intelligent Path Control
Ensure that key applications are performing well for your employees, customers, and visitors. Given your latency, loss, jitter, and application priority, Intelligent Route Control automatically directs application traffic to the best path. With Advanced Load Balancing, you can take full advantage of your bandwidth.

Application optimization
Speed up the application of the three steps: First, the use of Cisco application visibility and control of the depth of understanding of the application of bandwidth depletion. By improving visibility, you can make better decisions about applying policies and future capabilities. Second, add WAN optimization to help applications speed up and reduce bandwidth usage. Third, add smart content to where you need to work with Akamai's caching technology.

Secure connection
If the network is vulnerable to attack, good application performance and wise use of bandwidth does not make any sense. We protect your business with highly secure VPN overlays and the industry's strongest encryption technology. Our enhanced technology has proven its worth through years of practical deployment.
In addition, since you are streaming traffic through direct Internet access to conserve bandwidth, we can help provide the same level of security as the central control required by your security policy.
