Management Streamlining

Key Benefits:

•  Enables transparent deployment and centralized management

The Riverbed Optimization System (RiOS®) simplifies the deployment and management of application acceleration infrastructure by employing a transparent approach to communications. RiOS enables easy deployment through the auto-discovery of peers and the auto-interception of traffic, with no reconfiguration of clients, servers, or routers necessary.

RiOS simplifies ongoing management by providing simple but powerful web-based and command-line interfaces and reporting, as well as integrated, centralized management and configuration. RiOS also enables a host of additional management features, including dozens of deployment configurations, capabilities for redundancy, optional IPsec encryption, RADIUS/TACACS+ authentication, NetFlow support, and SNMP traps.
