Virtual Routers
Introduction to V2 Cloud Virtual Router solution.
Virtual Router functionality is an integrated part of V2 cloud platform that offers customers an effective Network-as-a-Service tool accessible via the user interface and API. A high level of granularity provides for a redundant and protected network configuration, deep level of control of access, and set up of preferred connections and routing. The Virtual Router tool grants unlimited virtual domains, firewall policies and registered endpoints, as well as a rich set of additional features. The Virtual Router tool allows customers to build very complex network solutions.
manage traffic flows
Customers can use the virtual router functionality to define and manage traffic flows between any two networks they wish. A multi-tiered networking topology can be defined within the cloud by creating multiple virtual routers. The following diagram shows the first Virtual Router controlling the traffic passing between the Internet and Private Network A, while the second Virtual Router controls traffic between Private Network A and B. Each virtual router can be deployed in a redundant way to ensure resiliency by utilizing dedicated, reserved underlying hardware capacity. This ensures stable and reliable performance as well as independence between any two network pairings.
Virtual Router Feature Set
V2 Cloud Virtual Router solution offers a rich feature set including:
Virtual Router
