Abstract

The Allot Service Gateway Sigma E (referred to as “SG-Sigma E” hereafter) demonstrated precise application recognition and actionable network intelligence while sustaining throughput of up to 159.3 Gbps with a single SG- Sigma E platform. The SG-Sigma E platform further demonstrated the ability to “steer”(or selectively redirect) Layer 7 application traffic streams to other internal or external service platforms in real time. The SG-Sigma E also demonstrated its ability to accurately detect asymmetric traffic (whose origin and destination endpoints are connected to different SG-Sigma E service platforms) and provide unified intelligence on the characteristics of this traffic. Lastly, Allot’s SG-Sigma E platform demonstrated support for N+1 hot standby operation with zero packet loss.
