King Saud University (KSU) has deployed Procera Networks’ PacketLogic platform for network traffic management and user awareness.
The university has over 100,000 students and nearly 10,000 faculty members. The school, which boasts one of the most advanced campus networks in the region, has seen packet traffic grow by more than 50% year-over-year. This creates a strong need for real-time granular traffic visibility, reporting, and bandwidth management.
“The network managers at KSU need to guarantee high standards of network traffic control and security, coupled with the ability to manage utilization of network resources so that important educational applications are given the highest priority. KSU needed a solution that not only provided control but also enhanced visibility into network and application usage to ensure the best use of network resources,” said Angus MacCormick, regional director at Procera (Middle East, Turkey & Africa).
