Gestione del Traffico di Rete
Universities often provide Internet to their students, having in mind that they use it mostly for research purpose.
But especially in the dorms many students use their access to download movies, music or software from the Internet. File sharing sites or file hosting services (direct download links) are very popular among them.
According to ipoque’s Internet Study, P2P applications, such as BitTorrent or eDonkey can consume well over 50 percent of the available bandwidth at a university.
The consequences are clogged networks with less bandwidth for research projects, interrupted Skype calls and very often cease and desist orders following the copyright violations through P2P.
With our deep packet inspection solution we offer schools and universities a wayto better control their network. P2P applications, for example, can be restricted with simple bandwidth management and whitelists created by the universities themselves to prevent copyright violations while legal file sharing is still possible.
By giving priorities to mission-critical applications, PRX Traffic Manager ensures the uninterrupted operation of the network.
