Telstra Programmable Network – Virtual Branch Network

Deploying and managing traditional networks can be complex, taking up significant resources, costs and time.

With Virtual Branch Networks, bring the functions and features of Telstra Programmable Network to your branch sites, allowing you to virtualise network infrastructure at the edge with Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) technology to transform your network and empower business agility.

Virtual Branch Network enables you to deploy multiple virtual network functions (VNFs) on our universal customer premises equipment (uCPE) to consolidate multiple physical hardware at sites into one device. Reduce the number of truck rolls whilst saving space and power across your branches. It helps to simplify the architecture and management of your networks, giving you greater control while still enabling branch level innovation.

Choose VNFs from a range of vendors and deploy them to individual sites on your network edge. Services can be provisioned and activated in minutes, improving speed-to-market and helping you keep up with constantly changing customer expectations and business demands.

Features

Programmable Networking at all your branch sitesVirtual Branch Network extends Telstra Programmable Network to your network edge, enabling you to configure your branch networks with the same automation and drag-and-drop agility that the Telstra Programmable Network portal and API set provide at the network core.

One box for branch networking needsVirtual Branch Network is capable of hosting and chaining multiple VNFs – including firewall, router, SD-WAN, and WAN Optimisation – on a single physical device. Running multiple VNFs concurrently on a single device can substantially reduce upfront capital expenditure, reduce complexity of networking in the branch, and provide the agility to help your business respond to changing market dynamics.

Zero-touch provisioningOnce connected to the internet, the Virtual Branch uCPE performs zero-touch initial configuration to eliminate complex device setup. By setting itself ready you can begin to spin up appliances, functions and environments quickly.

Hybrid-networking readyVirtual Branch uCPE supports multiple carrier network connections from Telstra. Multiple network connections enable hybrid WAN networking which can be used by customers to apply policies (through software) or configurations to steer applications towards predefined paths.

SD-WAN as a VNFSD-WAN is available as a VNF on Telstra Programmable Network. This functionality more effectively allocates workloads across the enterprise WAN through intelligent routing to optimise your operations and improve application performance for users and customers.

Benefits

Improve your agility and efficiencyRespond to market and business needs with the flexibility to scale and deploy additional appliances when and where they are needed. Deliver services in days instead of weeks or months through reduced order, provisioning and installation times. Automate provisioning at branch sites, and update patches from one central portal, minimising the need to deploy specialist network expertise on site.

Deliver a better experienceImprove your branch network performance, and give your branches access to the services they need. Give your sites secure, direct connection to the internet for faster access to public cloud based apps without having to go through the data centre. Improve application performance and user experience by configuring access so that mission critical traffic flows smoothly and offer low-cost alternatives for non-critical traffic.

Gain controlCentralise your management and deploy changes, such as policy configurations, across all your branches. Rapid service orchestration enables you to select and combine different types of services, and you can order, view and monitor existing services, performance and statistics with ease through an intuitive online portal.

Streamline operationsManage your branch environments more cost-effectively and reduce your total cost of ownership by consolidating devices through the use of uCPE. You can deliver operational time and resource savings by removing the need for hosting and maintaining multiple hardware equipment, with all changes to your service made via the online portal.
