Make your network a planned, documented and monitored structure
Configuration of switch, wireless and WAN infrastructure, branch connectivity with SD-WAN, capacity and fault tracking; together with network diagrams and configuration backups.

Network problems are the hardest to diagnose and waste the most time
Networks whose diagram nobody knows, whose configuration is not backed up and which run the same firmware for years are the biggest hidden risk. Sentinel documents, standardizes and monitors your network, and turns your branches into one secure, manageable structure with SD-WAN.
Standard and documented
VLAN plan, IP plan, network diagram and configuration backups; changes recorded.
Branches in one structure
Secure, prioritized and monitored connectivity over internet links with Fortinet SD-WAN.
Proactive monitoring
Port, bandwidth, error counter and wireless capacity tracking; see the fault before users report it.

Frequently asked questions
The most common questions about network management
In most scenarios SD-WAN with two internet links replaces MPLS and lowers cost; for voice and critical applications the decision is made after measuring link quality.
Yes. Fortinet, Cisco, Aruba and Ubiquiti are commonly managed; for unsupported devices found during discovery a replacement plan is proposed.
When a failed switch is replaced, the configuration is restored within minutes; unauthorized changes are spotted in the daily comparison.
Hotspot setup and log signing are provided together with the 5651 service; the guest network is isolated from the corporate network.
Active device management is in scope; cabling projects are planned separately under professional services.
