However, there has been a lot of confusion around what VPNs can and cannot do. That confusion has led many technologists to choose a VPN solution that may not be well suited for their particular environment. However, that confusion can be quickly eliminated with a little bit of education, especially when it comes to VPN Tunnels.

WAN Transformation: SD-WAN Cost and ROI Analysis Its no secret that traditional wide area networks (WANs) have to change. But cost reductions, in particular, that are often promised with the successor to traditional WANs, software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), is often misleading.

Here is what the experts say… Andrew Lerner @fast_lerner Andrew is an analyst at Gartner specializing in emerging networking architecture technologies, and was an early predictor of the impact of SD-WAN. Replacing MPLS/VPN circuits with IPsec-over-Internet (or something similar) can drastically reduce your WAN costs.

MPLS cost reduction is the target of the emerging SD-WAN market that is bustling with solutions looking to take the corporate wide area network to a whole new level. MPLS isnt encrypted by default: MPLS relies on the carrier private network for security because the data doesnt flow on the public Internet.

Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WANs) promised to address the high costs, rigidity and limitations of private MPLS services. To achieve those aims, SD-WAN nodes form an encrypted overlay across the underlying data services, such as xDSL and 4G Internet services, or private services, such as MPLS circuits.
