The need for simplification
As business needs evolve, managing local area networks (LANs) must become simpler – ensuring capacity, performance, security, and availability without compromising functionality.
As business requirements evolve, networks are becoming more complex and more important than ever. A well-functioning local area network (LAN) isn’t just about connectivity – it’s the backbone that enables people to do their jobs. It is therefore essential that management is as simple and as efficient as possible.
The key to managing complexity lies in two fundamental principles. By embracing these principles, organisations can transform network complexity from a burden into a competitive advantage.
Transparency
Also referred to as ‘visibility’.
Comprehensive insight into network performance, user behaviour, and device connectivity across all network segments.
Transparency means you’re not just reacting to issues; you’re understanding how your network performs.
This level of insight helps you make smarter decisions and stay ahead of demand. It’s a foundation for control, confidence, and continuous improvement.
Automation
Intelligent, policy-driven network management simplifies operations by reducing manual tasks and minimising human error.
Whether you’re working with traditional hardware-based configurations or modern software-defined architectures, automated policies ensure consistent performance, security, and compliance.
This approach not only streamlines day-to-day management, but also frees up IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives, improving reliability and reducing risk across the entire network environment.
