Chapter 2 The Service Control Point

The Corente Services Control Point (SCP) provides configuration and policy updates for Corente Services Gateways and Corente Cloud Services Exchange IPSec Clients, as well as collecting performance and usage data for reporting, monitoring, and proactive real-time alerting.

Because customer traffic never passes through the Corente SCP but flows directly from site to site, the Corente Cloud Services Exchange solution scales extremely well. Only a small amount of monitoring and control data is sent to the Corente SCP.

All administration is performed using the App Net Manager application, which is hosted by the Corente SCP. App Net Manager allows administrators to manage their networks and to define users.
