Introduction to Traffic Engineering Server

Internet Gateway, Bandwidth Manager, Performance Enhancing Proxy, Firewall

Traffic Engineering Server (TES) is Internet Gateway with powerful and easy-to-use Bandwidth Management, Quality of Service, Security, Acceleration and Filtering features. TES solutions are especially suitable for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), Broadband and Wireless Internet Service Providers (ISPs).

Providing tools to control, analyze, measure and filter TCP/IP traffic, TES helps to build highly efficient and optimized Local Area Network (LAN) with exceptional performance, security and manageability. Implementation of TES in certain networking structure allows to eliminate wide range of throughput bottleneck problems, reduce expensive WAN (Internet) bandwidth usage and thus to increase link utilization efficiency.
