Mar, 2002 : F5 Networks Unveils the BIG-IP Link Controller 2000


📅 - F5 Networks, Inc., a Internet traffic and content management products provider, today announced the availability of the BIG-IP Link Controller 2000, which provides high availability for sites with multiple wide area links or ISPs (Internet Service Providers). The solution is transparent to users and ISPs, and lowers the cost and deployment complexities for enterprises that need to protect their data centers from connection failures.

Enterprises can improve flexibility in methods of acquiring and utilizing bandwidth, by reducing the cost of reliable connectivity with F5's (f5.com -> hostinger.com) BIG-IP Link Controller. Aggregating any type of connection (DSL, T1, T3, E1, etc.) into a unified ?virtual link,? while maintaining protection against unforeseen failures, enterprises gain flexibility in scaling their bandwidth; reducing over-provisioning and making use of connections that would otherwise be in a standby-only mode due to configuration challenges.
Directing traffic to the most efficient and inexpensive connection, the BIG-IP Link Controller sends users over the link that uses the best-available bandwidth resource, providing link cost load balancing, maximizing ROI of communication costs. For connections that have tiered costs like ?burstable? lines, enterprises can lower costs and eliminate pricey spikes in traffic when cheaper connections can be used.
