Business-Critical Applications
Business-Critical Applications
The performance of applications such as ERP
and CRM can be impacted by less time-critical
business and recreational network traffic,
resulting in degraded performance and user
dissatisfaction. Packeteer helps optimize WAN
application performance by guaranteeing
bandwidth for business-critical traffic.
Packeteer classifies traffic into meaningful
categories: for example, Citrix by published
application, Oracle by database name, and Web
applications by Web service name. Intelligent
policy rules keep critical traffic flowing and out
of WAN-edge queues. With Packeteer’s
granular monitoring and control, IT managers
gain unprecedented ability to align network
access and use with business priorities.

Adapt Automatically to
Network Changes
Network Changes
The enterprise network is always subject to
large variations in traffic usage, no matter how
well-managed it is. Employee hiring,
application deployment and expansion,
overloaded servers, maintenance, external
attacks—all can cause huge usage swings and
affect resource performance.

Packeteer addresses this challenge with its
unique Adaptive Response technology.
Integrated into Packeteer’s core technology,
Adaptive Response automatically detects and
adapts to changing network conditions. The
technology also discovers and analyzes new
applications, tracks network efficiency, and
takes actions from sending an alert or starting a
packet capture to creating a partition to
contain abnormal activity.

Strengthen Network Security
Worms, viruses, and DoS attacks constantly
threaten network operation and integrity.
While defenses often focus on the WAN-LAN
perimeter, smart management of network
traffic provides an additional level of resource
protection.

Packeteer quickly spots anomalous activity that
accompanies an attack, pinpoints the infected
hosts, and limits the impact on user
productivity and application performance.

applications, even those masking their presence
through packet tunneling or port hopping.
As an adjunct to other security measures,

Ensure Voice-Over-IP
Performance
Performance
VoIP is a response-sensitive and bandwidth-
intensive application. Packeteer enables
guaranteed availability and prioritization of
bandwidth, which helps assure consistency and
quality of IP voice connections and greater user
satisfaction. Dynamic allocation ensures that
bandwidth is allocated at call initiation and
released at call termination for use by other
calls or critical applications.

Extend MPLS to the WAN Edge
MPLS based IP VPNs are rapidly replacing
frame relay as the dominant protocol for
WANs. But as applications get more diverse and
single-PVC connections remove monitoring
granularity, it becomes more difficult for
enterprises to gain the greatest performance
and value from MPLS.

Packeteer helps by leveraging its application
awareness to apply packet markings for
DiffServ, Type of Service (ToS), and MPLS. This
ensures that traffic is mapped to the right Class
of Service (CoS) for transit across the carrier’s
network. With the ability to monitor network
traffic and measure end-to-end performance,
Packeteer helps IT managers properly map and
track critical applications to better-performing
service classes.
