Feature
Benefit
Persistence and stickiness
Stickiness allows the same client to maintain multiple simultaneous or subsequent TCP or IP connections with the
same real server for the duration of a session.
same real server for the duration of a session.
Redundancy
Stateful failover capabilities help ensure resilient network protection for enterprise network environments. The Cisco
ACE integrates with Cisco GSS to provide a multiple data center scaling and failover system.

Server health monitoring
Cisco ACE checks the health of application servers and server farms through configuration of health probes.
Performance
Compression
The Cisco ACE4710 delivers up to 2-Gbps hardware-accelerated data compression and provides faster application
performance for application users.
performance for application users.
SSL acceleration
Cisco ACE integrates SSL acceleration technology, which offloads the encryption and decryption of SSL traffic from
external devices (servers, appliances, etc.), thereby allowing Cisco ACE to look more deeply into encrypted data
and apply security and application switching policies and help ensure compliance with internal and external
regulations.

TCP offload
Cisco ACE directs website traffic in the most efficient manner by analyzing and directing incoming traffic at the
request level. These capabilities enable granular application-layer policy and offload TCP processing from the web
servers, saving CPU cycles.

Security
Data center security
Cisco ACE protects the data center and critical applications from protocol and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and
encrypts mission-critical content.

Application security
Cisco ACE provides deep protocol inspection capabilities, which enables IT professionals to comprehensively
secure high-value applications in the data center. It secures mission-critical applications and protects against
identity theft, data theft, application disruption, and fraud and defends web-based applications and transactions
against targeted attacks by professional hackers.

Virtualized Services
Virtual contexts
Virtual contexts provide a means for creating resource segmentation and isolation, allowing the Cisco ACE
appliance to act as if it were several individual virtual appliances within a single physical appliance. Virtual contexts
enable organizations to provide defined levels of service to up to 20 business departments, applications, or
customers and partners from a single Cisco ACE appliance.

Role-based access control
(RBAC)
(RBAC)
RBAC allows organizations to specify administrative roles and restrict administrators to specific functions within the
appliance or virtual contexts, allowing each administrator group to freely perform its tasks without affecting the other
groups.

Deployment and Management
Function consolidation
Through consolidation of application switching, SSL acceleration, data center security, and other functions on one
device, Cisco ACE helps achieve better application performance, with fewer devices, simpler network designs, and
easier management.

Investment protection
By default, the Cisco ACE4710 supports virtualization with one administrator device and 20 virtual contexts, 7500
SSL transactions per second (TPS), and up to 2 Gbps of compression. The licensed throughput can be increased
to up to 4 Gbps without the need for new equipment, through software license upgrades.
