VLAN trials
We have two commercial VLAN beta sites under way at the time of this writing. If you have a VLAN topology and are looking to restrict or control the bandwidth allotment to each VLAN, contact us at admin@apconnections.net and we'll let you know when we release for general availability.
CTO corner : Software stable under stress tests for all conditions and loads!
In both our new NetEqualizer Test Lab and in some of our toughest field networks, NetEqualizers (running version 2.28) have been pushed to their limit and beyond. We are thrilled to report that under stress test loads there are NO known recurring or latent service affecting issues at this time. After 20+ years engineering embedded systems for some of the largest companies in the world, I know that it is a rare occasion to be able to honestly make such a statement. Enough said.
Advanced reporting in 2.28
We have upgraded our reporting features using the ntop bandwidth monitoring program to show more details and graphics than ever before. Check out the following link for detailed examples.
