Software-Defined WAN
Cost Agility
“SD-WAN is a new and transformational way
to architect, deploy and operate corporate
Business
WANs, as it provides a dramatically
Performance
simplified way of deploying and managing
remote branch office connectivity in a cost-
Simplicity Reliability effective manner.”1
“By the end of 2019, 30% of enterprises will use SD-WAN
products in all their branches, up from less than 1% today.”

Three Key Value Props driving SD-WAN
Simplified Management and Orchestration (Provisioning,
Management, Configuration)
Utilizing diverse transport effectively (Reducing costs via
broadband Internet, increasing bandwidth and utilization)
Increased Visibility and Security in the enterprise

Management Portal
SD-WAN: How does it work? • Single-pane of glass for configuration network management:
cloud-hosted and on-premises
1. WAN Transport Virtualization • Zero-touch provisioning
• Portal where user defines global policies
2. Centralized Management • Aggregated visibility on application performance
3. App-centric & Policy-based Orchestration
SD-WAN Controller
• Establishes and manages Secure Virtual Overlay to sites.
Management • Interprets the Global Policy according to the knowledge collected
Portal from the network
• Defines service chains to enable policy goals
• Manages distribution of interpreted Policy to individual elements

Contract mining company - Africa
Project Description
Customer is one of the largest Contract Mining Company’s in Africa with established support networks in Africa, Australia and
Europe. It is a mixed MPLS/Internet infrastructure across 20 branches. Step by step they want to get rid of their entire Cisco
infrastructure.
Ocedo was beating the competitors with:
● Automated fully-meshed VPN
● Pure central management of all components
● Zero-touch deployment for all components
● Dramatically reduced maintenance efforts
Gear:
● 3x G100
● 12x G50w
● 3x AP3
● 2x AP5
Effort:
● Few hours from time to time, because of step-by-step order and deployment
Status February 2016: More than half of the sites are up and running with Ocedo GWs, ordering step by step is going on

Government - Mauritius
Project Description
The customer is a belongs to the Government of Mauritius. Headquarter and branch in Mauritius plus 8 overseas offices
worldwide have to get connected including switching and wireless (for home offices too).
Ocedo was beating the competitors with:
● Automated fully-meshed VPN
● Easy and seamless integration of multiple home offices (L2 VPN)
● Pure central management of all components
● Zero-touch deployment for all components
● Dramatically reduced maintenance efforts
Gear:
● 9x G50w
● 5x AP5r & nx AP3
● nx S12
Effort:
● 1 day configuration
● Max few hours for each office replacing the infrastructure
Status February 2016: PoC was successful, in ordering process

Manufacturer for LED-based illumination technology - Germany
Project Description
The customer is one of the leading manufacturers of LED-based illumination technology and light systems. They have offices
and production branches in 40 countries all over the world, HQ is in Germany. All offices have MPLS connection, mostly
used for Citrix, but the bandwidth was often too small and the branches demanded local internet breakout. It was almost
decided to have Citrix CloudBridge VirtualWAN devices installed in all locations, but the partner brought Ocedo into the
game.
Ocedo was beating the competitors with:
● Hybrid WAN - use 2 or more Uplinks and use for failover (and loadbalancing/QoS/traffic path selection in future)
● very easy configuration - especially compared to the CloudBridge config
○ comment of the ProfServ guy at partner: “we sold 5 days of consulting & configuration to the customer but
actually we almost just got coffee and observed how the G50 appliances came online in the CC.”
● Citrix CloudBridge is still used in some larger locations, but the customer has saved >50k€ with Ocedo
Gear:
● 36x G50W, 20x AP3, 2x G100
Effort:
● ½ day for demoing the functionality and convince customer
● ½ day per location to replace and configure G50-onsite
Status February 2016: Ordered, deployment/integration is currently happening, 50% done
