Frequently Asked Questions
What is a self-hosted virtual appliance and how does it differ from cloud-based gateways?
A self-hosted virtual appliance runs within your own data center or cloud environment, giving you complete control over deployment, data residency, and infrastructure. Unlike cloud-based solutions, this approach eliminates third-party dependencies and allows organizations to maintain security policies and compliance requirements on-premises while leveraging NetCloud Manager's centralized control.
How does active/standby redundancy improve network reliability?
The active/standby configuration ensures that if the primary NetCloud Exchange Service Gateway fails, the standby instance automatically takes over without service interruption. This high availability design minimizes downtime and maintains continuous SD-WAN and security services, critical for mission-critical applications and compliance requirements.
Can the 250 Mbps throughput handle enterprise traffic volumes?
The 250 Mbps throughput is designed for mid-to-large enterprise deployments and branch office consolidation. For organizations requiring higher capacity, Cradlepoint offers scalable solutions. The virtual appliance architecture also allows horizontal scaling by deploying multiple instances across your infrastructure.
What does the 5-year subscription include?
The 5-year subscription provides continuous access to the NetCloud Exchange Service Gateway feature set, including SD-WAN services, zero-trust security policies, threat prevention updates, NetCloud Manager integration, and technical support. This long-term commitment ensures predictable costs and uninterrupted service delivery.
