AX SERIES: ARULE ADVANCED SCRIPTING

AX Awards

The AX Series aRule scripting tool enables advanced, highly-flexible and efficient Layer 7 traffic management. aRule technology is based on the industry-standard TCL programming language. aRules do not introduce performance degradation, even when numerous features are turned on, due to AX’s scalable Advanced Core Operating System (ACOS) architecture that is tuned for multi-core CPUs.  

The aRule advantage makes the AX Series an essential solution in any data center, and a key load balancer selection criterion. Some aRule usage examples include:
