Barracuda Link Balancer
Powerful and easy-to-use solution for routing and managing traffic across multiple Internet connections.
Designed to scale for high bandwidth requirements and provide business
continuity for an organization of any size, the Barracuda Link Balancer
optimizes the use of multiple Internet links, such as T1s, T3s, DSL and
cable connections. By combining links from one or multiple Internet
service providers, organizations reduce the need to purchase high cost
links to handle the daily Internet usage. Capable of automatic failover
in the event of link failure, the Barracuda Link Balancer helps assure that
your network is always connected to the Internet.

Simple Bandwidth Management for High Availability
For today’s organizations, Internet bandwidth and availability is mission
critical to day-to-day operations. The Barracuda Link Balancer aggregates
client and server Internet bandwidth to provide optimal access to
multiple high speed connections. With bandwidth management and
Quality of Service (QoS) features, the Barracuda Link Balancer prioritizes
bandwidth to mission critical requests for Internet connectivity.

client and server Internet bandwidth to provide optimal access to
multiple high speed connections. With bandwidth management and
Quality of Service (QoS) features, the Barracuda Link Balancer prioritizes
bandwidth to mission critical requests for Internet connectivity.
The Barracuda Link Balancer provides administrators with tools to
automatically prioritize critical Internet applications. For example, Web
browsing and email can be guaranteed bandwidth while peer-to-peer
applications and media streaming can be assigned a lower priority. The
flexibility to manage priority of Internet usage ensures low-priority
bandwidth-intensive applications never interfere with business-critical
operations. The Barracuda Link Balancer also includes a network firewall
capable of enforcing access control lists (ACLs), port forwarding, NAT and
DNS forwarding.

into one appliance. With an easy-to-use Web user interface, the Barracuda
Link Balancer allows administrators to easily define, manage and control
bandwidth settings across the network.
