The network plays a critical role in establishing a consistent and high quality user experience. The network must provide more than basic connectivity; it must transform to become a strategic business asset. Similar to a television, radio or telephone, we expect technology to just work and deliver a great experience. For instance, if the network or technology does not allow us to share our experience socially, we are left with a negative perception; the expectation for what constitutes a great experience is different for each person. It is up to IT to keep up and deliver excellent experiences. Our solution is TRULY integrated for both wired and wireless. Deployable for private and public cloud environments. Align with mega trends shaping the market: Cloud, Mobile and of Couse with Isaac, Social as well. What is Flow-Based Switching? A Flow is a uni-directional conversation between end devices Described by as many of the following contained in the packet (L2) – SA, DA, Port, VLAN, EtherType (L3) – adds SIP, DIP, Protocol, TOS/DSCP (L4) – adds L4 Source, L4 Destination Packet Processor operates at either L2, L3 or L4 depending on switch configuration, Provides context for network traffic Who, Where, What So What?- Every unique flow can be counted and controlled! Question, Why are you calling L2 MAC forwarding switching? Several decades ago we did one of 3 things to a packet, repeated it (frame was not touched), Bridged it (L2 MAC forwarding), or Routed it (L3 forwarding followed by L2 forwarding). The term switch is a “marketing” term that really just talks about a multiport Bridge in my opinion, and we have had those for many, many years
