How do I mitigate the risk of Wide Area Network Failure?
A Wide Area Network (WAN) is a wired computer network that provides data communications to a large number of users usually spread over a large geographic area. When data or voice is being transmitted across a WAN, the transmission is at risk due to the vulnerability of the network link itself. Therefore, a redundant connection must exist to ensure that there is no interruption to the service. WAN failover increases network availability by automatically switching over to a secondary Internet link when the primary link failure is detected. This solution can be complex and must be addressed for a proper Business Continuity solution to exist.
