The enormous inventions and innovations in IT infrastructure over the last decade have proved that every successful business thrives with a robust, always-on IT infrastructure. Organizations are growing rapidly and delivering positive results by utilizing IT applications efficiently and innovatively. All these productivity applications ride over converged, reliable, secure, scalable and cost effective network infrastructure solutions, both inside and outside the organization. The entire business of an organization is usually dependent on its IT infrastructure. Therefore, it is of utmost important for every organization to build a robust network around it which can meet the diverse demands of global business environments, mobility, and seamless user experience.

Today, enterprises are transitioning to real-time operations. This demands sharing accurate and up-to-date information with their business partner community like suppliers, retailers or customers. It is becoming a strategic advantage, and CIO's are trying to deploy architecture to provide access to all their employees anytime, anywhere and through any device - securely, reliably and seamlessly.

Senior management like CXOs want to improve productivity and reduce the cost of operations. They are deploying emerging technology/applications like VoIP and video conferencing as well as application sensitive architecture that helps prioritize business applications over other applications in organizations.

While CIOs extend the usage of data, voice and video communication along with business/workflow applications to a larger set of users, the volume and pace of information flow on the connectivity infrastructure is growing. The challenge is for network infrastructure to deliver the performance that users expect, with the features and flexibility your operations need, at an operational cost you can live with.

AGC Networks brings you a rich experience around converged, application aware, outcome based network solutions based on multiple OEM technologies. We come with a heritage of empowering enterprises across verticals like BFSI, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Government/Public Sector Units, IT and ITES for more than 25 years. We understand the significance of a real-time converged application-oriented network infrastructure solutions for the growth of an organization very well, which result in increasing productivity and help in reducing costs.

With more applications being added every day to a consolidated and converged service-oriented framework, the demand for a convergence and service-centric network layer is growing enormously. To fulfill current and future requirements, we help you to focus on building up high performance, simplified and flexible networks which will allow you to focus on rolling out new services rather than analyzing infrastructure readiness every time a need arises.

At AGC Networks, we understand the paradigm shift about expectations from networking infrastructure as we specialized in providing delay sensitive applications like voice and video. We are able to provide network architecture meeting solutions for all the common challenges, and

• Improve productivity by reliable and faster network architecture
• Improve user experience by deploying SOA
• Reduce operational cost by deploying scalable and simplified architecture

With our knowledge, skill and experience we are able to stitch together various building blocks to offer a seamless experience to our customers' end customer. An organization's efficiency in the today's world hugely depends on whether information can be accessed anywhere, anytime. A well planned, latency sensitive, future ready network is the base that can enable you to achieve this ubiquitous presence. AGC can assist you in building such a network base.

Switching

On the other hand, the consolidation of applications and resources is pushing organizations to a new level. Organizations now focus immensely on building up green datacenters which allow the roll-out of new applications and provisioning of computer and storage resources in a matter of few minutes. AGC helps you to build up green, fabric based, virtualized and converged datacenter networks with SLA driven manageability and management.

Along with both datacenter and end user LAN, organizations are challenged to provide seamless access anytime, anywhere to their employees, partners and customers. AGC helps you to build a granular, role based access layer which ensures users get the same rich experience based on the access policies no matter whether access is from a local network, or from their smart devices at a coffee shop.

Routing

On the other side of the WAN infrastructure lie carrier telecom service provider networks, which by nature are the most critical, near-zero downtime and complex networks in the world. Building up telecom networks, increasing capacities, and simplification of various carrier network layers needs a lot of planning along with highly experience people to design and deploy, and a lot of investment in spares and support structure. AGC carries a rich experience to help telecoms build MPLS, Metro Ethernet, Core and Edge networks.

A few years ago, IPv4 was sufficient to support all possible devices. The proliferation of connectivity and devices has changed the story in the recent years and thus the 32 bits IPv4 has gracefully given way to 128 bits IPv6 addresses, which also provide some inbuilt quality and security properties. However, different protocol standards mean they can't talk to each other. Moreover organizations cannot do away with their existing IPv6 incompatible devices. AGC helps both end user organizations and telecoms to build alternate strategies like dual stacking (co-existence of both standards), Network Address Translation/ CGNAT, and tunneling.

Metro Ethernet

Wireless

For IT organizations, BYOD means supporting a variety of devices and their operating systems, and maintaining an expected level of service. To keep costs low, it must be easy to securely onboard new devices and quickly identify and resolve problems. For users, BYOD means using a laptop or smartphone that best addresses their needs. Organizations must also understand support considerations and what happens when a device is replaced, lost or stolen.

The effect of granting enterprise access to personal devices has major direct implications on security, information ownership, device and network control and even helpdesk resources. These security challenges include:

• Understanding who and what is on the network.
• Keeping the network malware-free.
• Determining the level of information that can be stored on a BYOD endpoint.
• Providing proper enforcement of access policies to maintain compliance and audit requirements.

Many organizations prefer restricting guests to an isolated network segment, such as using a separate SSID from the corporate SSID, and providing internet access only. However, a true BYOD access solution is one which gives the IT team the flexibility to create granular access rules for different types of user groups based on their identity, location, device and privilege. Decision makers are striving to build a secure, identity aware wireless network with high bandwidth standards like 802.11n. Such a secure and high performance network enhances user experience and also improves productivity. AGC helps you to build smart wireless networks through proper consulting and business need analysis, and/or an indoor/outdoor or mixed wireless environment, adding wireless specific security and granular identity aware access, provisioning add-ons like guest access solution, and building a comprehensive management and monitoring overlay around the solution. With the engagement of our video and voice expertise, we can also help you to extend your unified communication networks seamlessly over the secure wireless LAN solution.

We also help very large organizations and service providers by offering innovative Wi-Fi hotspots, Wi-Fi 3G/ LTE offload solutions. To many organizations, this opens up new opportunities for revenue generation through their wireless LAN network.

Network Security

Network security is a multi-level and ongoing process which in general can be segregated into 2 groups:

• Security enforcement appliances like stateful firewalls, Unified Threat Management (UTM) services, IPS/IDS layers, and user authentication and policy engines
• Security monitoring solutions to manage and continuously monitor security state of the organization like NMS, logging and event correlation solutions

AGC helps you to build a multi-layer, end-to-end network security solution with tight integration of all components right from the perimeter to the access devices. We provide solutions that will prevent unauthorized activities from both outside and insider threats and solutions that will ensure compliance policies are met and user access is granted as per privilege levels. We also provide solutions that will help our clients comprehensively monitor and analyze network state for protection against unidentified threats and attacks.
