Challenges
The challenges we faced during this project
Operational complexity
It was a major challenge for the IT team to ensure SAP ran smoothly across three networks, including two MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) and a self-managed DMVPN (Dynamic Multipoint VPN).
Security vulnerability
Maintaining Check Point firewalls required constant updates a engineers to manage the firewalls and firefight potential security risks.
Efficient global transition of three networks into a new, single network
100+ global sites were migrated in alignment with FPM’s timeline, with minimum disruption and maximum efficiency.
Improved user experience & application prioritization (QoS)
Users at manufacturing sites and remote locations benefit from less downtime, faster remediation and optimized applications performance. It’s also now much easier to adjust local settings for different user groups.
Smarter detection, stronger security
The IT team now has full visibility and analytics with a single pane of glass – from global analytics to deep diagnostics – along with 24/7 proactive monitoring by IPknowledge.
