Virtual Private Network (VPN)

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

A Computrad VPN can allow potential clients to benefit from large cost savings as compared to traditional leased line Wide Area Networks (WANs). In addition the VPN can become the single network connecting the home and travelling workforce, an organisation's suppliers and customers in addition to simply connecting remote sites.

Virtual Private Networks (VPN) have caused more confusion in the Information Technology Market than almost any other topic. In real terms a VPN is any network that is created to connect sites over an existing public infrastructure. Therefore it can be argued that all WANs are in fact VPNs. Popular consensus over the term VPN now seems to define a VPN as network that utilises the Internet as the core of the network, however the largest popular misconception is that the internet will therefore create a slow and insecure network. Bandwidth providers can deliver performance warranties that are superior than traditional WAN providers and security can readily be accomplished even at gigabit speed.

The benefits of VPN can be huge, especially in cost terms, but failure to integrate and manage the technology involved can produce drawbacks that can be equally large.

Computrad take a vendor independent stance to provide solutions varying from Fully Managed Global VPN's to simple remote access dial up solutions. Not only are Computrad independent of product manufacturers but are independent from the bandwidth providers and can therefore always create VPNs that fully match client requirements in speed and geographic coverage.

Computrad are also able to offer direct internet backbone connections to provide VPN's with full QoS (Quality of Service) and also full MPLS (Multi Protocol Label Switching) to provide true broadband services end to end. As voice and video traffic is increasingly carried by the IP protocol, such QoS becomes an essential success criteria
