SonicWall Adds Multi-Gigabit Switches to SD-Branch PortfolioCategory: Security, firewall, machine-learning
SonicWall has added a line of multi-gigabit switches to its software-defined (SD)-branch offering that unifies the management of wireless access points and firewalls that include software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) capabilities. Dmitriy Ayrapetov, vice president of platform architecture for SonicWall, said the switches will replace a series of switches that SonicWall had been reselling from Dell Technologies.
To achieve that goal, the company embedded SD-WAN capabilities in its firewalls while expanding its portfolio to include wireless access points and switches.
That capability makes it possible for IT organizations to enforce cybersecurity policies regardless of where employees are located or what network they are using to access IT resources in a branch office, said Ayrapetov.
As part of that architecture, SonicWall also provides zero-touch deployment capabilities, which eliminate the need for extensive cybersecurity expertise to deploy its appliances and services.
