How It Works
Bigleaf’s infrastructure connects your business to any Cloud technology, using
using intelligent software to ensure a high-performance connection to the Cloud.
Bigleaf’s Site-to-Cloud Architecture
The Bigleaf router installs outside the
firewall, prioritizing application traffic
in and out of the customer’s LAN
Multiple broadband circuits are
tunneled together as one pathway,
providing bidirectional control and
visibility of all traffic

SD-WAN For The Home Office
Provide remote workers with reliable communications and application performance
Plug-and-Play
Bigleaf delivers simple setup without requiring complex configurations. A Bigleaf edge router is sent directly to
each home office, works seamlessly with the existing ISP and broadband connection, and a typical install can be
plugged in without the need for specialized IT resources.
Business Applications Prioritization Over Other Household Traffic
Intelligent software automatically identifies and categorizes 100% of your traffic in and out of your home office,
determining which applications require prioritization — such as Internet-based phone calls and video conferences
over streaming home entertainment. Bigleaf’s software then applies bi-directional QoS in real time, all without any
manual configuration. That means your most important business applications get the VIP treatment when you’re
working remotely.
Redundancy and Outage Prevention
Bigleaf’s owned-and-operated Cloud-Access Gateway Network is fully redundant, with multiple core routers,
servers, internet transit circuits, and core backbone circuits. All of our Points of Presence, or “POPs” connect
across our dedicated backbone, so traffic between your home office and the core of the Internet is always protected.
Beyond the core network, each home office with a Bigleaf router connects to multiple Bigleaf POPs at all
times, for automatic geographic redundancy—delivering the best possible connectivity.
Visibility & Reporting
Bigleaf unlocks the hidden data from your home offices to the Cloud. You gain access to real-time and historical
data from our SD-WAN software that monitors each of your home offices’ Internet connections 10x per second.
Web dashboards, performance reports and email alerts are all available to deliver the insight you need to support
your remote workers.
How SD-WAN Works For a Home Office Works
Bigleaf’s patented software detects traffic changes and circuit health in real-time, making
intelligent routing decisions to ensure reliability and performance for your business-critical apps.
Bigleaf’s service distributes monitoring and control across our core server clusters in the cloud and our routers located at your home offices. We connect your traffic from our routers at your home offices, running across multiple ISP paths to our Bigleaf owned-and-operated Gateway Network, reliably moving your traffic to and from the Internet. The Bigleaf monitoring
system constantly measures circuit performance in both directions, evaluates traffic flows from your applications, adapts to changing conditions in real-time based on algorithms and alarm thresholds, and automatically prioritizes traffic related to business Cloud applications over other household Internet traffic, such as streaming video and video games. Our network works in unison with your organization’s VPN tunnels and existing firewalls, allowing your existing systems to operate as you’ve designed. Bigleaf also provides visibility and control of each circuit from the edge to your Cloud apps so you can triage, diagnose, and more quickly solve where Internet connectivity issues are coming from. Bigleaf Home Office supports single- and multiple-circuit home connections.
