3 Are you shifting to a virtual data center, private/public/hybrid cloud? Recently, Cisco announced that they are deprioritizing Cisco ACE often a prelude to eliminating development on a product line. As a result, many customers want to know what the next step is for their application delivery controller (ADC) strategy. For ACE customers who are shifting to virtual data centers, private clouds, public clouds, and even hybrid clouds, they know an ADC that can easily map to these deployment models is needed. Riverbed Stingray is a family of software and virtual ADCs that provide this capability. While not a one-toone feature match for Cisco ACE, Stingray provides the right features, and often times more features compared to ACE. This document provides a high-level feature comparison of Riverbed Stingray Traffic Manager software vs. Cisco ACE. You will get enough information to determine if Stingray is right for your environment. Optimize, secure, and accelerate performance with Stingray products While many developers and operations teams limit their focus to a basic load balancer, Stingray product customers quickly learn that they can get all the benefits of a load balancer and much more with an ADC. Stingray product family includes three core components to optimize, secure, and accelerate performance of online applications: Stingray Traffic Manager software: full-featured software ADC that delivers a faster user experience. It increases server efficiency by up to 3x and boost the throughput of application servers by up to 50 percent, while at the same time reducing response times through dynamic caching, and both local and global load balancing. Stingray Aptimizer: industry-leading web content optimization platform that accelerates web application load times by up to 4x driving more web transactions, productivity, and user satisfaction. Stingray Application Firewall: sophisticated application firewall that delivers deep application security Riverbed Technology. All rights reserved. 3

6 Cisco ACE performance figures Use this table for the performance numbers of Cisco ACE, numbers based on the published datasheet: Feature ACE4710 ACE30 Module Throughput 4 Gbps 16 Gbps Compression 2 Gbps 6 Gbps SSL throughput 1 Gbps 6 Gbps SSL TPS 7500 SSL TPS using 1024-bit keys 30,000 SSL TPS using 1024-bit keys Deployment Cisco ACE Available as a service module for Catalyst 6500 switches and 7600 routers and as a standalone ACE 4710 appliance, Cisco ACE can be deployed in bridged, routed or one-armed mode for enterprise customers and service providers, depending on architecture requirements. Stingray Traffic Manager By contrast, Stingray Traffic Manager software operates in full-proxy mode: network deployments can be either one-armed mode or routed mode. However, Stingray Traffic Manager may not be suitable when enterprises are running many transparent services, or for deployments where the network needs to be bridged or routed while load balancing in transparent mode. Your Riverbed Stingray Sales Specialist may be able to advise on specific implementations and deployments. Stingray Traffic Manager software runs without modification on Linux, Solaris operating systems and may be ported with relative ease to other Unix-like platforms. Stingray Traffic Manager ships as a variety of Virtual Appliances for VMware, Xen, Oracle, and Microsoft 1 hypervisors, or may simply be run as software. 1 Microsoft HyperV support in beta 2012 Riverbed Technology.

9 Implementing Cisco ACE features with Stingray products Using a combination of features available from Stingray products these Cisco ACE capabilities can be implemented. IP/protocol-based ACLs (access control lists) ACLs (Access Control Lists) are used in the ACE product to filter (allow/deny) traffic based on layer 2 (EtherType) or Layer 3/4 (Extended) packet information. ACLs are less useful when load-balancing in Full Proxy mode (either with ACE or with Stingray Traffic Manager). This is because full proxy mode is typically configured in a deny all mode (all incoming traffic is ignored), then a proxy is explicitly configured for a particular IP/port/protocol combination. Where this functionality is required in a Stingray Traffic Manager software environment, it is achieved: a) using Service Protection Policy b) using iptables/netfilter or similar capability in the underlying OS NAT methods ACE supports several NAT methods: interface-based dynamic NAT, interface-based dynamic PAT, server farm-based dynamic NAT, static NAT, static port redirection. These methods are necessary to tune how NAT-based load balancing methods function. Full-proxy load balancing does not require NAT support by virtue of its mode of operation. Where required, Stingray Traffic Manager software supports two additional NAT capabilities: IP Transparency: Stingray Traffic Manager software can spoof the source IP address when connecting to a server, making server-side connection appear to originate from the client. This is a useful capability when the server performs logging or access control based on the client source IP address; Interface NAT: Stingray Traffic Manager Virtual Appliance can be configured to route traffic between networks and apply SNAT on nominated interfaces. This is a useful capability when back-end servers on private networks need to route to an external, public network. Other NAT capabilities may be achieved by configuration of the underlying OS that the Stingray Traffic Manager software runs on, but this is rarely necessary in practice Riverbed Technology.

10 Virtual contexts Cisco ACE has the capability to fully virtualize load-balancing services within an ACE Service Module or Appliance (up to 250 virtual contexts in a service module, up to 20 contexts in an appliance). In addition, role-based access control can be configured separately within each virtualized context. Stingray Traffic Manager software can be virtualized in a similar manner using a hypervisor such as VMware, at minimal performance impact compared to running the software natively. This delivers virtualization, sandboxing, resource control, and RBAC. Stingray Traffic Manager software supports additional RBAC. Users are authorized against either an internal database or an external LDAP/TACACS+/RADUIS database and given permissions that define the actions (none/read/write) the user can perform to a high degree of granularity. Features not available in Stingray Radius Load Balancing Cisco ACE has a set of load balancing capabilities to support Radius protocol, which includes Radius AV pair based persistence. This feature is very critical in Mobile SP deployments where AAA traffic to WAP gateways and billing sub-systems needs to load balanced and persisted. Stingray Traffic Manager software currently does not support Radius Load balancing and advance persistence of Radius traffic based on Radius AV pair. Asymmetric Server Normalization (a.k.a Direct Server Return) Cisco ACE supports Direct Server Return/Asymmetric Server Normalization modes. This feature is used predominantly when large data needs to be transferred to clients without the Cisco ACE device being the bottleneck for throughput. Stingray Traffic Manager software does not support Direct Server Return mode, but your Riverbed Stingray Sales Specialist may be able to advise on specific implementations and deployments Riverbed Technology.

11 Stingray Traffic Manager Features: Examples and Applications Stingray Traffic Manager software s advanced traffic management features, customized by TrafficScript and Java Extensions allow an application developer or administrator to construct complex traffic management policies that address deficiencies in the application or add further capabilities to the application. Examples and applications include: Content Modification: rewrite errors in responses, add dynamic information (page load times, meta tags, geographic information), enable additional functionality (Google Analytics and other tracking applications), embed information from other data sources (e.g. RSS feeds), watermark content (images, PDF documents), and switch users to low-bandwidth versions of a service. Rate Shaping: mitigate the impact of web spiders, apply rate limits dynamically when services slow down and apply rate limits to users who visit from high-traffic referral sites. Fixing Application Problems: mask and work around errors such as 404 Not Found / 503 Too Busy, send custom error pages, or offload an entire web site onto the traffic manager. Address Security Problems: recent attacks addressed at Bind and IIS, filter out bad requests, authenticate users, rate-shape denial of service attacks, prevent over-usage of usernames and passwords and filter out undesired content in responses (e.g. social security numbers). Control of Traffic Management functionality: fine-grained and adaptive control of content caching, selective bandwidth management, detailed session persistence and full control of SNAT (IP address spoofing). Conclusion Moving to Stingray, as reported by Cisco ACE customers, simultaneously helped them deliver a better application experience while cutting costs and simplifying ADC deployment. Stingray fulfills the most important ADC requirements and provides significant advantages around application integration, advanced functionality, and ease of deployment in virtualized environments.
