Talari Expands APN Appliance Capabilities in Major New Software Release

LAS VEGAS, April 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Interop 2010 -- Talari Networks, Inc. — the company bringing WAN virtualization and cloud economics to Enterprise networking — today announced a major software upgrade for the Mercury APN Appliance Family.

APN software release (APNware) 2.0 fully integrates with existing management systems and provides detailed visibility into the performance of the individual Wide Area Network (WAN) connections which are part of a Virtual WAN. Built-in diagnostics quickly pinpoint network configuration errors and simplify product testing and deployment.  WAN virtualization can significantly increase available bandwidth for remote offices, so TCP/IP termination is now supported  to maximize performance on high-bandwidth, high-latency TCP/IP flows.

To perform real-time per-packet traffic engineering, an APN appliance keeps very detailed statistics on the loss, latency, jitter, and bandwidth consumption for every available network path. In APNware 2.0 this information is now viewable in interactive charts which provide performance and quality data down to a per minute granularity.

"In the first generation of our solution we focused primarily on the difficult problem of combining different sources of IP bandwidth in a way that makes those connections reliable and predictable enough for business use," said Keith Morris, Vice President of Marketing, Talari Networks Inc. "In APNware 2.0 we have taken feedback from our current APN customers and used it to make the technology easier to install, manage, and integrate within a customer's existing IT infrastructure."
