BBT.live’s Advanced Network Management

Managing complex networks with geographically dispersed locations can be a headache. Traditional approaches often require extensive infrastructure and struggle to balance scalability with centralized control.

BBT.live’s BeBroadband® as a Service (BbasS) Solution: Our innovative solution leverages advanced layering techniques, specifically Layer 2 over Layer 3 technology. This approach seamlessly extends local network functionality (Layer 2) across broader internet connections (Layer 3).

Simplified Management

Centralized control of IP addresses and routing policies streamlines network operations.

Cost-Effectiveness

Reduce hardware costs by leveraging Layer 3 routing while maintaining Layer 2 functionality.

Enhanced Flexibility

Seamless mobility for devices, like virtual machines, allows them to move freely without changing IP addresses. This simplifies hybrid cloud deployments and disaster recovery.

Security and Control

Combine Layer 2 segmentation (VLANs) with robust Layer 3 security measures for comprehensive protection.

Legacy System Support

Existing Layer 2 applications and protocols continue to function flawlessly.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Prioritize critical applications by leveraging Layer 3 QoS mechanisms for optimal performance.

Improved Scalability

Easily expand your network without major infrastructure changes.

BbasS leverages Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) to further enhance these benefits. SD-WAN simplifies WAN management by decoupling hardware from control mechanisms. BbasS integrates Layer 2 functionality into SD-WAN, offering additional advantages:

• Extended Layer 2 Connectivity: Maintain consistent network behavior across locations for applications requiring Layer 2 adjacency.
  
• Seamless Branch Connectivity: Connect branch offices as if they were on the same local network, simplifying management.
  
• VLAN Support: Securely extend VLAN segmentation and policies across geographically dispersed sites.
  
• Centralized Visibility: Gain control and insight into both Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic through a single interface.
