1 Overview Accelerating WAN Connections Large enterprises spend a significant portion of their IT budgets on storage and networks, such as redundant servers and storage and the required backup equipment. They then lease WAN lines to connect branch offices to the corporate network so that employees at those branch offices can access data on the corporate network. Unfortunately, WANs often have low throughput and high latency because: ■ WAN lines have limited bandwidth.
Overview Accelerating WAN Connections As Figure 1-1 shows, the Extended Services zl Module with Steelhead Application is typically deployed at a branch office. This application communicates with a Steelhead appliance that is installed at the corporate main office. The two work together to accelerate WAN traffic exchanged between the branch and main offices. The Steelhead appliance and the Extended Services zl Module with Steelhead application communicate over a private WAN or virtual private network (VPN).
Overview Accelerating WAN Connections Deployment The Riverbed Steelhead appliance and the Extended Services zl Module with Steelhead Application are deployed differently. The Steelhead appliance is deployed inline, while the Extended Services zl Module with Steelhead Application is deployed in an HP 5400zl or 8200zl Switch Series. Inline Deployment In Figure 1-1, the Steelhead appliance at the main office has been deployed inline between a switch and a firewall.
Overview Accelerating WAN Connections packets that match a specific criteria and forwarding the packets to the Steelhead Application, the HP 5400zl or 8200zl switch does not take any further action on the intercepted packets. Transparent Mode is available only when an Extended Services zl Module is installed in an HP 5400zl or 8200zl switch. The switch must also be running software version K.14.58 or above. (See “Update the Switch Software” on page 2-4 in Chapter 2: “Hardware Installation.
Overview Accelerating WAN Connections ■ Zone policy—A zone policy defines which packets are selected, based on the source zone and the destination zone. The source and the destination must be different zones. That is, the HP switch will not intercept packets that are exchanged between switch ports that are assigned to the same zone. The zone policy also specifies the direction of the packets—unidirectional—and the action that should be taken—intercept.
Overview Accelerating WAN Connections In a bridging only configuration, the HP switch: ■ Intercepts the packets that meet the criteria defined in the Transparent Mode configuration on the switch ■ Forwards the intercepted packets to the Steelhead Application This example shows two user-defined zones, the Inside zone and the Outside zone. Notice that all the devices on the network are untagged members of VLAN 1.
Overview Accelerating WAN Connections Figure 1-3. Routing with Multiple VLANs External routing. In this deployment, the HP 5400zl or 8200zl switch has an external firewall that is functioning as a router. For example, the switch might include an HP Threat Management Services zl Module, which is routing traffic and providing firewall services (as well as IPS and VPN services). The Steelhead Application does not receive traffic directly from the outside subnet but only from the TMS zl Module.
