6 Implementation Consideration

The PeerApp UltraBand P2P Caching solution can be introduced in the following two ways:

Inline implementation – the layer 7 switch is placed inline on the subscriber traffic path.

PBR implementation – configuration of a PBR from the router/switch to redirect the traffic with TCP >1024 to the layer 7 switch.

Questions AnswerWhat is your preferred network deployment option?

Inline implementation PBR implementation

Where is your preferred network location to deploy the UltraBand solution?

Border Gateway / Core Network POP
