SonicWALL Inc. has released WAN Acceleration in SonicOS 5.8.1, further enhancing the capabilities of the current SonicWALL Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) Series and introducing integrated support for the SonicWALL WAN Acceleration Appliance (WXA) Series. Today's announcement underscores SonicWALL's commitment to continued investment in its NGFW series and to providing its customers with a highly secure, accelerated and optimized network that drives business and employee efficiency.
The delivery of SonicOS 5.8.1 bolsters SonicWALL's consolidated security platform and tightly integrates features like application intelligence, control and visualization and deep packet inspection scanning with the WXA Series to provide WAN optimization and acceleration for the distributed enterprise. The WAN acceleration is seamlessly built into the existing SonicOS user interface, self-discovers and allows system administrators to easily leverage the new and advanced features.
"A key requirement for the ongoing success of our business is a secure and efficient network that we can manage in a smart way," said Michael E. Crean, President of Solutions Granted. "With the combined power of SonicOS 5.8.1 and the WXA Series, we drive business and employee productivity in two ways. Firstly, we leverage application intelligence and control features to optimize the applications on the network for our business needs. In addition, we can now transmit business-critical data faster and effectively increase our bandwidth - this saves us time, money and helps us drive profitability.
