It is an intelligent networking technology that centrally controls existing connections (such as fibre, broadband or 4G\/5G). Traffic is automatically routed based on application requirements and real\u2011time link quality for optimal performance and reliability.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Why do organizations choose SD-WAN?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Because traditional WAN architectures often can no longer keep up with the demands of cloud applications, hybrid working and distributed locations. SD\u2011WAN offers intelligent routing, automatic failover, improved cloud performance and centralised management all from a single platform.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;How does SD-WAN improve the performance of cloud applications?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">SD\u2011WAN is<em> application\u2011aware<\/em>: it recognises critical services such as Microsoft 365, Teams, VoIP or healthcare applications and prioritises them. Traffic is dynamically routed over the best available connection, so users always experience a fast and stable service.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;What happens if an internet connection fails?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div class=\"elementToProof\">SD\u2011WAN automatically detects this and switches within milliseconds to an available alternative connection (for example from fibre to 4G\/5G). This automatic failover ensures continuous availability without manual intervention or noticeable interruption for users.<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Can I combine SD-WAN with existing MPLS connections?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Yes, absolutely. SD\u2011WAN is transport\u2011agnostic and works very well in a hybrid setup. You can keep MPLS for applications that require predictable latency, while sending other traffic cost\u2011effectively over broadband or mobile networks.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;How do I manage my SD-WAN environment?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Through a single central, cloud\u2011based management platform. From there, you define policies, monitor all locations in real time, adjust configurations and roll out updates without having to log in to each site individually.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Is SD-WAN secure?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span>Yes. SD-WAN solutions from The Networkers integrate security at multiple levels: encrypted tunnels, application-oriented policies, and continuous monitoring. This keeps your network protected, regardless of where users or applications are located.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;How fast can I roll out SD-WAN to new locations?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Much faster than with traditional WAN solutions. Because SD\u2011WAN uses standard internet connections and centralised configuration, you can often connect and activate new sites within days rather than weeks.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;For which organizations is SD-WAN suitable?&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">For any organisation with multiple locations, cloud usage or hybrid workplaces.
