What QB-Manager Provides for Enterprises
Device Provisioning
The incorporated ability of zero-touch provisioning (ZTP) enables branch gateway devices to be provisioned in minimal effort. When a branch gateway device is installed, ZTP automates follow-up steps and configuration. New branch devices installation can also be done with the feature of configuration clone or bulk configuration. Centralized network provisioning for automatic configuration dramatically reduces tasks of the error-prone policy configurations and speeds up the process of network building.
Device Management
QBM enables IT teams to centrally define granular routing policies including the combination of users, application groups and links, pushing configurations to branch sites in accordance with business intent. This approach speeds up the process of network management and dramatically prevents the possibility of human errors. It minimizes the administrative effort and operational cost associated with managing branch gateway devices.
Logging & Reporting
QBM provides powerful analytics combining with data mining and graphical reporting capabilities. Events and alerts can be centrally collected and reported for further analysis. While this capability doesn’t prevent failed links or high latency and jitter, it prevents those factors from impacting the continuity across enterprise networks. Real-time monitoring and historical reporting are handy for network administrators when it comes to fault finding, troubleshooting, network and capacity planning, ROI analysis, and SLA confirmation.
