The Syswan Technologies Octolinks SW88 high performance
Multi WAN router ensures greater Internet availability by using
up to 8 different broadband links. State of the art automatic
redundancy and bandwidth load balancing technologies
allows for fast, secure and reliable Internet connectivity and
accommodates the growing bandwidth needs of any small-tomedium sized organization.
The scalable ports feature of the Octolinks SW88 allows for
maximum bandwidth capacity ensuring that your network not
only remains connected to the Internet, but all Internet traffic is
constantly managed reliably and securely even during periods
of high traffic and heavy workloads.
Maximize available bandwidth
The Octolinks SW88 can be set to use up to 8 out of the 16
ports to allow connection of up to 8 different broadband links,
including xDSL, Cable, Satellite or Leased (T1) links. This
unique design feature allows for intelligent load balancing
to maximize the available bandwidth whilst managing
and prioritizing traffic flow for fast and redundant Internet
connectivity.
Easy to install and manage
The Octolinks SW88 is easy to configure locally or remotely
using your Internet browser via a standard (HTTP) or a secure
management interface (HTTPS). Built-in NAT, SPI Firewall,
DHCP server, URL Blocking and Access Filters amongst
other security options provide the highest industry standards
to easily build a fast, reliable and secure network configuration.
With its easy-to-use Configuration Interface, you can set
Alerts to be sent via email, System Logs to be sent to a Syslog
server, as well as monitor network activity via SNMP.
Flexible configurations
The flexible network configuration capabilities of the Octolinks
SW88 allows it to be used in networks which support Static
Routing, RIP or Dynamic Routing. With UPnP you can
automatically open and close networking ports as required by
certain applications. QoS helps give priority to critical traffic
on your network taking advantage of the maximum available
bandwidth at all times. With these powerful features, the
Octolinks SW88 can be quickly and easily integrated into any
network.
As more people rely on the Internet for communication, so too
does the need to rely on scalable, secure and fast Internet
connectivity. This means that there is no longer the need
to limit your Internet needs with just one ISP. The Octolinks
SW88 resolves this issue by maximizing the benefits of up to 8
different ISP’s whilst minimizing the need for costly upgrades,
complex networking equipement or changes in existing
network infrastructure.
Example of use :
Ensure Quality of Service (QoS)
The advanced QoS architecture of the Octolinks SW88 offers
ultimate industry standard bandwidth management which
improves the Quality of Service available to your network
users for VoIP or other mission critical applications.

Features
Intelligent Load Balancing : Use up to 8 WAN ports
simultaneously to increase the available bandwidth. Set the
load balancing values for each WAN port individually and
configure the load balancing algorithm to work by IP numbers,
Packets, Bytes or Sessions to suite your needs.
Multiple Connection Options : Use broadband access from any
broadband provider including Leased links (T1). All standard
xDSL, Cable and Satellite modems and connection methods
are supported, including Fixed IP, Dynamic IP, PPPoE,
multiple-session PPPoE and PPTP.
Secure Management : Secure access to the configuration
interface locally from within your network or remotely via the
Internet.
SPI Firewall : Industry standard protection for any network
using built-in advanced Stateful Packet Inspection technology
against malicious attacks.
Access Filters and URL Blocking : Controls Internet access
and available applications for network users. Up to five user
groups can be defined with each group assigned different
access rights.
Multi DMZ : Supports up to 8 Static IP Addresses per WAN
port.
Virtual Servers : Allows remote users to access servers on
your network. Easily enable standard services such as Web,
FTP or Email or define your own servers and services.
Special Applications : Manage applications which do not directly
work behind a firewall (example: online games).
Dynamic DNS : Allows the use of a Domain Name even when
a fixed IP Address is not available.
QoS : Gain control over critical applications by assigning
priority to your network traffic (example: VoIP).
UPnP : Allows easy set up and configuration of an entire
network as well as enabling automatic discovery and control
of networked devices and services.
16 Port Ethernet Switch : 16 port 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Switch
of which up to 8 ports can be defined as WAN ports for easy
integration into an existing network.
