vCloudKey™ Network Appliance Provisioning Practice

STSG has developed and is offering a second package that compliments MasterKey™ by remotely managing and consolidating the provisioning of such devices as Cisco, Cymphonix, SonicWall, Gigamon, Fortinet, Multifactor, Defigo, Axacore, and Net Scaler. The package collects the data into the common database, provides high availability, monitors activity, and extends the schema for Active Directory supporting user access inside the firewall, outside in the cloud or wherever secured access is required.

vCloudKey™ is a simplified Highly Available (HA) Load Balancing solution that synchronizes the configuration of multiple Cymphonix devices, thus maximizing the transparency of bringing a secondary device on line to replace a failed primary device. An ongoing periodic configuration synchronization process between devices assures maximum compatibility of settings between devices. The synchronization process can either utilize as its source configuration a download of the configuration file from a given Cymphonix Composer device or specified as a file on the local file system. The synchronization process is handled transparently to users as a process managed by the Windows Scheduler. Interaction with the user is via a configuration file for input and logs/e-mail as output.
