Increase WAN application performance
The Dell™ SonicWALL™ WAN Acceleration Appliance (WXA) 2000 reduces application latency and conserves bandwidth, significantly enhancing WAN application performance and improving the end user experience for distributed organizations with remote and branch offices. Unlike standalone acceleration products, the Dell SonicWALL WXA 2000 seamlessly integrates with Dell SonicWALL E-Class Network Security Appliance (NSA), NSA and TZ Series Next-Generation Firewall solutions to offer the unique combined benefit of both prioritizing and minimizing application traffic between sites, resulting in optimal network performance.
WXA 2000 features.
The WXA 2000 hardware appliance improves application performance through innovative WAN acceleration and optimization technology, allowing remote users to collaborate, share and revise large files more effectively and efficiently.
Powerful performance.
With 2 GB of RAM and a 250 GB hard drive, the WXA 2000 can support up to 120 users and 600 concurrent connections on a single appliance.
Bandwidth optimization.
The WXA 2000 remembers data that has been transferred previously, and through data de-duplication, replaces repeated bytes sequences with an identifier to reduce application latency and conserve bandwidth.
Simplified deployment.
As an add-on solution to Dell SonicWALL firewall appliances, the WXA 2000 drastically reduces the complexity of deploying, routing and managing the WXA appliance.
Reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).
By improving the efficiency and overall utilization of existing WAN bandwidth, the WXA 2000 helps businesses avoid incurring higher monthly expenses to increase WAN bandwidth capacity.
Data compression.
The WXA 2000 increases network performance while reducing latency by compressing data sent across the WAN.
Platform features.
Dell SonicWALL WXA solutions reduce application latency and conserve bandwidth with a variety of optimization techniques, including data caching, file de-duplication, traffic prioritization and more.
Increased security.
When deployed with a Dell SonicWALL Next-Generation Firewall, an additional layer of security is provided through the use of Dell SonicWALL Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection® technology, which scans all traffic and data for threats before sending it to the WAN acceleration appliance.
Byte caching and file caching.
Reducing the amount of redundant data moving between the central office and remote locations,bytecaching and file cachingdramatically decrease traffic volume, thereby improving the user experience.
Protocol optimization.
Users accessing resources over the WAN can take advantage of LAN-like application performance that decreases the latency and chattiness presented by inefficient protocols or application communication.
Web (HTTP) caching.
For Internet-bound web traffic distributed over HTTP, content is cached locally on the WXA appliance which decreases the amount of bandwidth required for web traffic and results in improved browser response times.
Visualization.
Administrative tools and reports deliver real-time insight into the performance gains obtained by introducing WAN acceleration appliances into the network.
Windows File Sharing (WFS) acceleration.
Dell SonicWALL WXA solutions help improve response times while decreasing the amount of data transferred when downloading or accessing files from a shared drive.
Bandwidth prioritization.
When deployed in conjunction with Dell SonicWALL Application Intelligence and Control Service, WXA solutions offer the unique combined benefit of both prioritizing application traffic and minimizing traffic between sites, resulting in optimal network performance.
