Frequently Asked Questions

Why use SD-WAN Secure?

Vox SD-WAN Secure enables organisations to address their communications concerns for distributed locations quickly and easily. It also provides a solution that is easy to manage, agile, reliable, flexible and, most importantly, secure.

Can I still use my existing firewalls with this solution?

Yes, you can use the built-in application firewall or the Edge can co-exist with your existing firewalls. In the branch, the Edge would typically be deployed on the WAN side of the firewall and be responsible for the site-to-site VPN. In addition, the one-click application-aware service chaining capability enables the forwarding of traffic to more centralised enterprise regional hubs or cloud provider PoPs for firewall and security services.

Does it include security for email, websites and applications?

Yes, Vox SD-WAN Secure integrates with FortiGuard Labs’ threat intelligence to protect against the latest security threats, and with FortiSandbox to protect against more advanced security threats.

Can sensitive applications, like voice and cloud email, meet performance SLAs?

Yes, SD-WAN Secure will prevent SLA breaches by prioritising business-critical applications and dynamically sending them on the right WAN links.

What does SD-WAN Secure offer for SD-Branch capabilities?

Vox SD-WAN Secure offers a WAN path controller with application SLA, Fortinet’s next-generation firewall (NGFW) with SSL inspection, application awareness, dynamic failover time and scalable auto IPsec VPN.

Can you extend security from the firewall through to other devices?

Yes, Vox SD-WAN Secure is powered by Fortinet Secure SD-WAN. What’s unique to Fortinet is that as switches and access points come online, security from the firewall extends through them, creating additional protection within your network that other vendor firewalls may not provide.

SD-WAN: Delivering Secure Access

The benefits of leveraging hyperscalers to provide users with direct access to cloud platforms cannot be overstated. No longer needing to be rerouted to the head office using traditional MPLS technology, distributed workers can now access company data and solutions via consumer broadband links using SD-WAN as an enabler. This gives them all the functionality they would typically have in an office environment from their remote locations. In fact, one of the biggest advantages of an SD-WAN is the ability to use multiple broadband links to provide reliable, high-quality access to business systems.
