NETWORK CONTROL
More users, cloud applications and locations place additional pressure on available connections.
Applications, circuits and network behaviour can be viewed more clearly across the estate.
Business-critical voice, video and cloud traffic can be given preference over less urgent activity.
Applications can use the most appropriate available connection based on performance and policy.
Teams across different sites can access important services more consistently.
WHY IT MATTERS
Traditional network designs can struggle as organisations adopt more cloud services, add locations and support increasingly distributed teams. SD-WAN provides greater control over how traffic moves, helping IT teams understand performance and protect the applications that matter most.
View locations, connections and application behaviour more centrally, making performance issues easier to identify and investigate.
Prioritise voice, video and critical cloud platforms during busy periods to help reduce delays and poor user experiences.
Use available primary and backup connections more intelligently, helping traffic continue moving when a circuit becomes unavailable or performs poorly.
Apply routing rules, priorities and access policies more consistently across branches, offices and operational locations.
NETWORK DESIGN
The right SD-WAN setup begins with understanding what each site needs to support, where performance is already causing problems and what the impact would be if a connection failed.
Locations, circuits, cloud services, applications, usage patterns and existing network issues are reviewed together.
Critical services such as Teams, telephony, contact centre, CRM and operational platforms are identified before policies are configured.
Primary and backup connectivity can be combined with intelligent failover, helping reduce the impact of outages or degraded performance.
Routing, application policies, user access and management permissions are shaped around operational and security requirements.
Performance data can support future policy changes, new locations and evolving cloud requirements after deployment.
CONNECTED SERVICES
SD-WAN does not replace the underlying connections. It helps manage how those connections are used, which means the wider network design still matters.
Prioritise Microsoft Teams, cloud telephony and contact centre traffic to support more consistent voice and video performance.
Combine suitable fixed connections with smarter routing and application control across each location.
Add secondary circuits, 4G or 5G backup so traffic has another route when the primary service is disrupted.
Align network visibility, access policies and management with the wider IT and security environment.
PRIORITY IN ACTION
Teams, voice, CRM and backup connections can be ranked by priority, so critical applications receive preference over less urgent traffic when the network is under pressure.
WHERE IT HELPS
SD-WAN can be particularly valuable where connectivity performance varies between locations or important services compete for bandwidth.
Manage connections and routing policies more consistently across offices, branches and operational sites.
Give Microsoft 365, cloud platforms and collaboration tools a more appropriate route across the network.
Prioritise voice and contact centre traffic to help protect call quality during periods of higher demand.
Create clearer oversight across distributed sites that depend on payments, stock systems and cloud applications.
Support access to critical systems and communication services across offices, public buildings and community locations.
Add sites and connections within a more structured network approach as the organisation expands or restructures.
ONE ACCOUNTABLE TEAM
SD-WAN delivers the greatest value when application performance, connectivity and resilience are considered together. With dbfb, the design starts with the systems your teams rely on and what poor performance would stop them from doing. The underlying circuits, policies and backup options can then be managed through one approach, with UK-based support and ongoing account management as sites and requirements change.
01
The design reflects the services that matter most rather than treating every type of traffic equally.
02
SD-WAN can work across suitable connectivity from different providers, allowing the network design to reflect coverage, performance and commercial requirements.
03
Segmentation, access policies and central visibility can support wider security and compliance responsibilities across the network.
04
Performance queries, policy changes, additional sites and resilience reviews remain supported as the estate develops.
