Nuage Networks Virtualized Network Services (VNS) is an SD-WAN 2.0 solution that automates the provisioning, configuration, and management of WAN connections to provide the optimal application performance at the lowest cost, while meeting strict business policy and security requirements for each application. Nuage Networks VNS can provide this policy-based automation while seamlessly connecting WAN branch sites to on-premises data centers and private clouds, public clouds, and provider-managed VPN networks. VNS relies on a central policy repository to define business and application specific rules that dynamically optimize WAN links and remote branch appliances or devices.

To secure your organization’s access to resources outside the SD-WAN and to the internet, you can deploy a Nuage Networks SD-WAN with Prisma Access, a cloud-based security infrastructure that uses next-generation security features. Using a shared ownership model, Palo Alto Networks manages the Prisma Access infrastructure, while you manage the process of connecting the Nuage Networks SD-WAN to Prisma Access.
