Build a Recurring SD-WAN Revenue Stream Under Your Own Brand
The Nepean Networks Smart SD-WAN Technical Guide is a detailed walkthrough of the platform’s 8 Core Intelligences — the capabilities your customers rely on, explained clearly enough to sell with confidence.
What You'll Walk Away With
This isn't marketing copy. The Smart SD-WAN Guide is a practitioner-level technical reference covering every major capability of the Antares platform — written so MSPs can understand exactly what they're selling and how it works for every single customer.
-
How the 8 Core Intelligences work together
Network, Traffic, Cyber, Edge, Experience, Connectivity, Cloud, and Infrastructure & Troubleshooting — what each does and how they combine into a resilient, intelligent WAN.
-
Real-time visibility via the Illuminate platform
AI-driven Deep Packet Inspection, 40+ live dashboards covering bandwidth by site/user/application, cybersecurity threat monitoring, asset tracking, and Grafana-based performance metrics including latency, jitter, and experience scoring.
-
Vendor-agnostic security without lock-in
How to integrate any firewall — Clavister, pfSense, WatchGuard, Check Point, Fortinet, and more — via service chaining, keeping the security plane independent from the SD-WAN fabric.
-
Last-mile resilience and multi-link bonding
Smart aggregation of fibre, LTE, Starlink, xDSL, and fixed wireless into a single resilient connection — with sub-second failover and zero session drops regardless of which link fails.
-
Zero-touch provisioning and multi-tenant management
The Antares portal: hierarchical multi-tenant controls, Juggler ZTP (new sites live in under 24 hours), NOC mode with RAG status, and single-pane visibility across upstream and downstream devices.
-
Remote diagnostics without truck rolls
Secure Connect for remote access to edge nodes, wire-rate Wireshark packet capture, iPerf bandwidth and latency testing, and built-in speed tests — all without a site visit.
Is This the Right Guide for Your MSP?
This guide is built for MSPs who are actively evaluating or already selling managed network services. It's most relevant if:
- You manage multi-site customers currently on MPLS or legacy VPN
- You're looking to add a recurring revenue service beyond endpoints and Microsoft 365
- You want to deliver SD-WAN under your own brand — without building the underlying infrastructure
- You've lost deals to competitors because you couldn't offer a managed WAN option
- You're a technical lead evaluating the Antares platform before a broader conversation
