01
What is private Layer 2 connectivity?
Private Layer 2 connectivity extends an enterprise network across multiple locations, allowing geographically distributed sites to operate within a consistent private network environment.
02
How is StarEdge Horizon different from a VPN?
A VPN typically creates an encrypted tunnel over an internet connection. Horizon extends private Layer 2 connectivity across StarEDGE-managed infrastructure, providing a private network path between remote operations and enterprise environments.
03
Can StarEdge Horizon connect remote sites to enterprise enviornments?
Yes. StarEdge Horizon is designed to extend private enterprise connectivity between remote locations, headquarters, data centers and supported cloud environments.
04
Can StarEdge Horizon work where private circuits aren't available?
Yes. Horizon can extend private networking to locations where fiber, MPLS or other private circuits may be impractical or unavailable.
05
Can StarEdge Horizon replace MPLS?
StarEDGE Horizon can provide an alternative to traditional MPLS, extending private Layer 2 connectivity to remote locations. The right approach depends on your network architecture and requirements.
