PacketShaper supports ADN with unmatched visibility to optimize WAN performance. With PacketShaper, you can automatically classify and measure network applications, provide quality of service (QoS) provisioning to control traffic and increase WAN capacity with compression capabilities.

Critical applications need to move at the speed of business. Blue Coat PacketShaper provides WAN Optimization  functionality through a series of modules

Monitoring Module
Blue Coat PacketShaper automatically classifies and measures network applications, providing the insight of a probe but with deeper, application-intelligent Layer 7 Plus visibility.
Monitor performance in real time and the information you need to solve performance issues.

Shaping Module
The Blue Coat PacketShaper Shaping Module provides Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning that helps you control traffic to ensure that latency-sensitive, customer-critical applications get the bandwidth they need to perform at their peak.

Compression Module
The Blue Coat PacketShaper Compression Module instantly increases WAN capacity, improving application performance and user response times. increasing capacity from two to ten times, reducing bandwidth usage and minimizing  WAN latency.

Discover and monitor 600+ applications with exceptional granularity.
Replace probes with intelligent monitoring and optimization on one platform.
Deliver outstanding voice and video conferencing with per-call QoS and MOS reporting.
Identify and control recreational applications on the WAN.
Assure performance of real-time applications including thin client, transactions and voice.
