Validating Network Suitability for Voice and Video Services in a Live Network
애플리케이션 노트
Participants in global financial markets rely on disparate teams of employees to serve both external and internal customers. These teams could be located in corporate offices, homes, hotels, coffee shops or other places, many of which are not on coprorate owned networks. However, regardless of location, users demand the same access and quality of experience they would have at headquarters. Meanwhile, the migration from dedicated Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) circuits to Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN), where the same circuit is often shared, means there is less control for prioritization of key services at a link level. More than ever, organizations are deploying collaborative working solutions, and reliance on these systems is growing. These solutions require a suitable level of network performance to ensure that the voice and video elements are usable. Because these solutions typically use User Datagram Protocol (UDP), a connectionless protocol, low network jitter and data loss are vital to ensure a positive user experience.
