Intelligent Bandwidth Aggregation and Failover in OptiWize SD-WAN: Maximize Your Network

If you are looking for optimal performance and resilience for your network, intelligent bandwidth aggregation and failover in OptiWize SD-WAN is the game-changer you have been waiting for.

With OptiWize, it is like having a dedicated highway for your network traffic, with the ability to change lanes smoothly whenever congestion appears. In a world where connectivity underpins every business activity, ensuring optimal and reliable performance across multiple Internet connections is essential.

OptiWize, with its SD-WAN solution, not only improves your network — it does so in an intelligent and automatic way, integrating bandwidth aggregation techniques and rapid failover to ensure your connection never lets you down, especially at the most critical point: the edge connection.

Bandwidth Aggregation with Layer 4 ECMP Bandwidth aggregation is one of OptiWize's key technologies. It uses the Equal-Cost Multi-Path routing (ECMP) protocol at Layer 4 to balance traffic across multiple Internet connections. This means your network can handle multiple connections simultaneously, optimizing traffic and guaranteeing stable sessions even for applications that demand high quality, such as video calls or VoIP.

How it works:

  1. Individual tunnels: OptiWize establishes WireGuard tunnels for each gateway, creating a dedicated flow for every connection.
  2. IP extension with BGP: The BGP protocol extends the public IP to the customer router, simplifying address management.
  3. Per-session load balancing: Traffic is balanced on a per-session basis, preventing misalignment or out-of-order packets.

Intelligent Failover with Real-Time Quality Control A resilient network is not just a network that works when everything is fine — it is a network that reacts instantly to problems. Thanks to real-time quality control, OptiWize SD-WAN continuously monitors latency, packet loss, and jitter on every gateway.

Here is how it works:

  • Continuous monitoring: Real-time measurement of critical parameters.
  • User-defined thresholds: Set your own reference values to trigger failover.
  • Automatic and fast failover: If a gateway fails to meet quality requirements, OptiWize immediately excludes it, redistributing traffic across other connections — all within approximately 500 milliseconds.

Local Preferences for Gateway Prioritization The most compelling aspect of OptiWize SD-WAN is its flexibility. With local preferences, you can set the priority of your gateways, optimizing network behavior according to your needs. You can choose whether to prefer a primary connection with one or more backups, or aggregate multiple connections simultaneously with automatic failover.

OptiWize SD-WAN: Edge Connection Optimization The key difference between OptiWize and traditional SD-WAN solutions is its focus on edge connection optimization for a single site, rather than managing multiple locations. This approach is ideal for organizations that want to improve the bandwidth and resilience of their connection, optimizing the "last mile" directly at their offices.

Key benefits:

  • Single-site optimization: Perfect for those who want to aggregate multiple connections at a single location.
  • Dedicated Elastic IP: A dedicated public IP for simplified configurations.
  • Simplified deployment: Setup is fast and straightforward, ideal for anyone who wants a solution that works in just a few clicks.

What you can do right now If you manage a site with multiple Internet connections, now is the right time to take the next step and optimize your connectivity with OptiWize. Whether you need greater bandwidth, automatic failover, or simply easier network management, OptiWize SD-WAN is the answer.
