Broadcasters and production companies require multiple customers’ security, protection, and integrity when interconnecting their production facilities and event locations. These connections must be cost-efficient connecting IP studio locations, and it is essential to manage different IP domains and protect the other networks from intrusions. This needs to be done for high-bandwidth services with very high requirements, which is difficult when using traditional firewall solutions.
The challenge is managing multiple customers efficiently, including occasional-use services that need to be routed through the network, maintaining integrity and quality between different users.
