NetEq Customer: How does NetEqualizer differ from other traffic shaping alternatives?
1. Other technologies force network administrators and operators to build and manage extensive and expensive policy libraries based on application and user groups. NetEqualizer automatically relieves bandwidth congestion with its built-in fairness algorithm, which applies traffic policies based on the behaviors of application types. 2. Most of the other tools that we are aware of can only shape or control traffic coming from your network. NetEqualizer influences traffic coming into your network as well as the traffic leaving your network. 3. NetEqualizer is cost-effective. The appliance listens to traffic on your network and then makes a decision every half second on how to make adjustments to traffic flows. Other tools attempt to adjust dynamically traffic flows with every new packet sensed on your network. The NetEqualizer methodology allows very low-powered, inexpensive hardware to handle very large traffic flows. NetEqualizer does sacrifice a degree of accuracy to ensure cost-effec
