Multicloud Networking

Managing dozens of IPSEC VPN appliances or firewalls and ensuring the availability of numerous end-points can be a daunting task. Plus, multi-site deployments often require a full-mesh, meaning each site should connect to every other site directly to ensure the shortest path, making configurations very complex. To make things even more complicated, a proper DR strategy means that each site connecting to your Corporate HQ or Primary Data Center now must fail to a Disaster Recovery site when the primary site is unavailable. Total Uptime’s Multicloud Networking simplifies everything.

At the most basic level, each of the “firewalls”, “VPN end-points” or other connectivity devices at each site needs just one tunnel to our globally distributed Service Mesh cloud. One tunnel allows communication to any part of your private network, as you dictate, including your primary site, DR site or any other location.

To make it happen, you build tunnels between each site to a static Virtual IP (VIP) that we assign for your exclusive use. This VIP is announced using IP Anycast technology from multiple VPN concentrators around the world for high redundancy and availability. Then, you tell us what subnet(s) are at each site and which are permitted to communicate with other subnets, ensuring that traffic will only be allowed where you want it to go. Alternatively, you can configure all subnets to communicate with all other subnets. Once built, you’re done!
