Micro Edge

Optimize Network Connectivity

Businesses continue to need more bandwidth than ever before as the reliance on cloud-based apps, video conferencing, VoIP, and cloud storage increases. Your network must securely adapt to these growing needs while prioritizing business-critical applications and services.

Micro Edge provides advanced connectivity and security capabilities to enable any business to have a secure network edge at a fraction of the cost of traditional commercial solutions. Micro Edge provides secure branch connectivity, optimizes existing internet infrastructure, and prioritizes business critical applications to maximize employee productivity.

Features

Branch Office Connectivity

Micro Edge appliances feature WiFi and LTE connectivity (AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon), Fiber, and multiple WAN ports to provide multiple Internet paths that automatically fail over to eliminate downtime. Securely connect distributed enterprises and remote workers using IPsec VPN, OpenVPN and WireGuard VPN.

Application Based Optimization

Optimal predictive path selection technology incorporates a sophisticated cloud component to identify applications at the first packet. This advanced technology enables Micro Edge software to choose the best path for specific applications or categories of network traffic.

Edge Optimization

Deploying Micro Edge at a branch office boosts Internet connectivity with traffic shaping and QoS to prioritize business critical traffic. Real-time performance monitoring with WAN balancing leverages the performance and cost savings of inexpensive Internet connections to eliminate the need for expensive dedicated links such as MPLS.

Cloud-based Centralized Management

Network administrators using ETM Dashboard gain full visibility of all their NG Firewall and Micro Edge deployments. Cloud-based ETM Dashboard enables you to view appliance network status and location, important events, and reporting data. Configure and push policy templates, WAN rules, and global configuration. Simplify deployment of multiple appliances by connecting appliances with auto-provisioning VPN.

Zero Touch Provisioning

Using ETM Dashboard, network administrators or MSPs can remotely set up and configure single or multiple Micro Edge deployments without having to be on site. Automatic upgrades ensure the latest security updates and enhancements.

Security and Threat Prevention

Micro Edge has a stateful firewall, Threat Prevention, Geo-IP Filter and Web Filter which blocks traffic that can cause harm to your network. Encrypted traffic is a hotspot for hackers to hide malware or other malicious code. However, Threat Prevention, Geo-IP Filter and Web Filter can make an assessment even if the traffic is encrypted and block harmful files or transmissions before they get onto the network.

Centralized Network Orchestration

Manage your entire network from a single login. Leveraging ETM Dashboard, you can remotely deploy new hardware appliances, create software-defined networks, connect appliances automatically, configure and push policy templates, create global alerts, view real-time information about hosts, initiate endpoint security scans and more.

 

Micro Edge Appliances

Micro Edge appliances are lightweight edge devices designed for branch office connectivity, network performance optimization, and business continuity. Each appliance is shipped with the Micro Edge software pre-installed and is ready for easy remote provisioning via ETM Dashboard.

The dashboard gives an overview of the state of the network at a glance. It summarizes interface usage and performance, as well as showing recent routing decisions.

 

Comprehensive reporting makes it easy to drill down into interface usage, routing decisions and bandwidth usage.

 

View the complete list of applications, descriptions and categories, and allow or exclude application traffic with a simple checkbox.

 

Threat Prevention is an advanced security capability that blocks high risk Internet traffic using the reputation score associated with the server hosting the service.

 

Web Filter is a security feature that blocks access to harmful web content by enabling the administrator to control access to websites based on over 79 categories.

 

Network setup, routing policies, firewall and system settings can be configured from the Settings user interface.
