inter-site gateway
An inter-site gateway connects geographically distributed sites, ensuring secure, optimized, and reliable data exchange across wide area networks.
Inter-site gateways bridge multiple remote locations, providing secure routing, protocol translation, and optimized traffic flow over WANs. They enforce encryption, access control, and redundancy to maintain business continuity and high availability.
Features include traffic optimization, compression, failover, and centralized monitoring. Inter-site gateways are critical for organizations with distributed operations, supporting collaboration and digital transformation across sites.
Alternatives include point-to-point VPNs or MPLS circuits, but inter-site gateways offer greater flexibility, scalability, and centralized management.
