Deployed Solutions

MERU (Fortinet)

Meru’s (Fortinet) solution optimizes the enterprise network by delivering performance, reliability and ease of operation of a wired network while retaining the advantage of mobility. The installation of the wireless solution included an MC 1550 controller and 6 access points both inside and out. Prival had to assess the optimal location of access points and configure the controller and the links to the authentication servers.

BLËSK Network Monitoring

The City of Candiac also needed a network monitoring solution that will send preventive alarms. They acquired the Blësk Network Monitoring solution, one of the most integrated software suites, offering advanced coverage, full intrusion detection (IDS) and uniform application. The city chose Prival for this installation because of its team of certified network administrators and extensive experience in implementation and infrastructure configurations.
