A lot of friends around the Internet is always the problem of the router to say things, always complaining about the router does not give force. In fact, caused by insufficient bandwidth, network disconnection, card network instability and other common problems of the network, and not just a router problem.
"The quality of the router" is really important, but I think, compared to the "bad router" on the impact of corporate networks, the larger problem is the complex and chaotic various internet behavior. Network management often complained about the instability of networks, bandwidth, and many other problems, in addition to a few are based on hardware reasons, the biggest is the diversification of corporate Internet behavior caused by inadequate management. Simply said that the router is not good impact on the network is not correct, in fact, routers for the excessive proliferation of the internet behavior of the "scapegoat."
The router is "the scapegoat" for Internet behavior, may have the following reasons: First, the internet behavior is too messy, and no longer like the past to go different ports, many applications such as web games, online video sharing site, Web page version of IM, and so on all go HTTP80 port, even as peer-to-peer software, etc. also adopt 80 ports to circumvent the blockade, In the face of these unrecognized network applications, of course, there is no control. Second, the enterprise personnel surfing habits are different, some people watch the Web page, while watching the Internet video, but also use peer-to-peer download files, some people only use real-time access software, or write blog, but also some people always open peer-to-peer. A simple cooperative IP Division Planning Network or the use of the same management standards does not apply, and therefore do not have a comprehensive Internet behavior management. Because through the router did not realize the management effect, so many people are pointing the finger at the router, let its back on the nameless "scapegoat."
"Popular Routing ﹝ Traffic Behavior Management ﹞" is a more popular concept recently, it is understood that the concept is the development of technology with years of network technology development experience, to develop a packet identification based on the application-oriented function, network managers can more accurately in a variety of applications to manage the Internet behavior and limited network bandwidth, Let the network resources maximize the effectiveness, improve operational efficiency. The author believes that if the popular route is really based on application-oriented, to achieve the most detailed Internet behavior and bandwidth management, then, for the Internet behavior without chapter of the "Blame" can easily lose. In view of this, the author has carried on the thorough research to the chivalrous popular route.
For different internet application behavior, the grand route can be easily divided into four main functions--L7 application blockade (Blocking), L7 VIP Priority Channel (VIP priority Channel), L7 Apply bindings (application Binding) and L7 QoS Bandwidth management.
First of all, the network in the workplace is filled with a variety of network applications, such as stocks, watch video, im chat, peer-to-peer download, VoIP business negotiations, remote transfer files and so on, and these work-related or unrelated applications may use the same service port. Work unrelated to the use of too flood of words not only affect the efficiency of the individual, the Internet environment for other people also caused by slow speed, security attacks, lack of bandwidth and other adverse factors. If not properly managed, it may be the router for these problems on the back of the "scapegoat." The Grand fashion route identifies application services, blocking (or permitting) application use, such as blocking in time, BT, YouTube, face book, and so on. Because it is based on packet identification, even if different applications are using the same service port, but also can effectively block the application unrelated to the work, while opening the required applications, so that the Enterprise office efficiency is higher.
Second, the enterprise's normal network application will also be prioritized by the need, such as the extremely important video conferencing, the big customer VoIP business communication and the senior executives to the network data timely access, and so on, all need to ensure its good bandwidth and stability. In these situations, the grand fashion route can be individually set VIP applications, or VIP objects (for example, the general manager), or both set (for example, the general manager only when opening the page is the VIP). Also, when the object is set to VIP, the highest priority of bandwidth is available, not QoS controlled, and the bandwidth used is unrestricted. As a result, popular routing can be used as a priority for these VIPs and application services, and will not be smooth or even unusable because other application services consume bandwidth.
Again, access to more than one internet line to do bandwidth increase and load balancing is a common practice in commercial and school institutions. However, if the line can not play efficiency, low utilization, even if there are more than one will feel the card network, slow and so on, it is possible that this will also be counted to the head of the router, and added a top of the "scapegoat." At this point, you need to bind specific applications according to the characteristics of the line, the grand popular route allows applications to be assigned to different outside lines, and important applications bound to online, such as CRM, which is critical to the enterprise, can be tied to the most stable fiber-optic circuits, while the general web browsing, You can focus on the ADSL line, even if there is accidental disconnection, it will not affect the operation of the enterprise.
Finally, when network bandwidth is not enough to cause the Internet to be intermittent, view the bandwidth used by applications defined by the service port, but do not see any unreasonable occupancy. At this time, can not say that the problem is a router, network management needs to do is from the service port will not be necessary to use the application services to do bandwidth constraints, and the real important application to do bandwidth protection. The popular route is based on the identification application, which can make the network administrator to limit and guarantee the bandwidth of the application service. For example, you can limit the download bandwidth of web video and protect the bandwidth of general web browsing, so that Web browsing and web video are smooth.
Enterprise Internet behavior with the network applications more and more complex, do not blindly increase the line, increase bandwidth or blame routers do not give force, to targeted management and guidance. By the above function, we can see that the popular route of the Grand Connaught can solve these network behavior management needs, the bandwidth is not very abundant but want to protect important applications such as demand, based on application-oriented, to achieve the most detailed Internet behavior and bandwidth management. Don't let the router for the Internet behavior back "take the blame", through effective means, effective control of the network application without chapter, your network can experience "fly general feeling".
