Key Principles Behind NetReality
The WAN edge is the site of critical network
application exposure – the bottleneck.
NetReality WAN based platform protects the site of
greatest bandwidth constriction
scalable architecture: The NetReality system uses a
central monitoring and policy management system
with distributed remote devices, performing as both
probes and shaping policy execution points
User friendly, point & click, JAVA based Graphical
User Interface

WiseCable
The WiseWan WiseCable is an
intelligent cable that
bypasses any power failure
or hardware breakdown. In
such an event, the
WiseCable ensures that the
data continues to flow on
the line by detaching the
WiseWan from the network
as soon as a breakdown
occurs. The network
continues to operate
smoothly until WiseWan is
operational again.

Classification and Prioritization
Shaping policies are configured by the user using a
point and click central policy console, and then
distributed to the WiseWans
WiseWans use advanced protocol and application
decoding to classify the traffic in wire speed and
determine if shaping is necessary
Traffic to be shaped will be queued by priorities
WiseWan releases the frames back at line speed, but
different order - according to policy
Low priority sessions will be delayed and slowed
down, high priority sessions will be accelerated
40
Traffic Classification
Applications and Protocol
Support for more than 700 protocols and applications, including
recognition of some applications using dynamic ports, user defined
applications, and application header information – Citrix Published
apps, Oracle information, HTTP URL and MIME type

Traffic Shaping
Traffic shaping actions:
Prioritization - the priority level of the rule by using the 6level slider. The range is: Pass through, High, MediumHigh, Medium, Low, and Block. Pass through allows
data to be transmitted with highest priority with no
constraints. Block prevents all data from being transmitted
Bandwidth guarantee - minimum amount of bandwidth that
this conversation/class should be guaranteed to
Bandwidth limit - maximum amount of bandwidth
consumption that you want this conversation/class to
consume
DiffServ Tagging – overwrite the DiffServ tag with a custom
tag based on it’s calssification
43

Shaping Per PVC
The Shaping Per PVC functionality allows WiseWan to
guarantee bandwidth for congested PVCs regardless of the
overall line congestion
All WiseWan NAPS systems are defined by default for shaping
per PVC.
How Shaping Works - The user defines the Committed
Information Rate (CIR) and the Maximum Information Rate
(MIR) for each DLCI
Shaping is triggered when traffic utilization on the PVC reaches
~85% of the MIR, and shaping stops when utilization drops
below 60%
Limits always work

IDC on SLA
Today’s cost-conscious IT managers
are monitoring SLAs and the
utilization of bandwidth as a way to
optimize their relationships with
carriers based on changes in their
business, such as layoffs and
downsized ecommerce initiatives,
or simply making sense of overprovisioning practices
