6rd is an IPv6 migration technology, where the access network of the service provider is running IPv4.

aFleX is a scripting tool that is built into the Thunder and AX Series of New Generation Server Load Balancers. aFleX is based on a standard scripting language, TCL, enabling the load balancer to perform Layer 7 deep-packet inspection (DPI). Information in the header or data portion of the packet can then be erased, changed or manipulated as needed [..]

Application Acceleration consists of methods that can be used to improve the performance of applications over networks to ensure that application data is delivered as quickly as possible. Application acceleration techniques also reduce the computational overhead on the servers providing the data. 

Application delivery networking is the practice of creating a framework of technologies that work together to provide the appropriate levels of availability, security, visibility, and acceleration to networked applications. These application delivery networking technologies feature their own proprietary CPUs and generally reside at the network endp [..]

Bandwidth refers to the width of a communications channel, and it may be helpful to envision bandwidth as a hose or pipe that carries data communications instead of water. Comparatively a communications channel (such as a T1 line) could be said to have a wide bandwidth, while a lower-speed communications channel (such as a 56 Kb dial-up line) could [..]

Bandwidth management is the practice of effectively allocating the available resources within an enterprise's communications channel in order to optimize the speed of mission-critical communications, while reducing bandwidth allocated to applications that are less critical or less sensitive to time delays.

A data breach is a security incident involving the unknowing exposure or unauthorized access of sensitive, protected, or confidential data. In the corporate environment, a data breach is a fairly common occurrence and is either caused by the theft or loss of a computing device, internal employees inadvertently introducing malware into a network, or [..]

DDoS is an acronym for Distributed Denial-of-Service. It’s a type of attack where hundreds or even thousands of client computers are hijacked by a hacker to strike against a single system, network or application. If an organization becomes compromised by a DDoS attack, whatever service it provides becomes unavailable to its employees and customers. [..]

Denial of Service (DoS) is an attack where one computer and one Internet connection inundates a targeted system or resource. When an army of remotely controlled computers inundates all your resources, that’s called a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. Both types of attacks attempt to prevent internal employees and customers from accessing [..]
