On-Prem Hardware Based Solution
zWAN Gateway Router
On-Prem Hardware Based Solution
zWAN Gateway Router for branch offices, datacenters, and work-from-anywhere connectivity.
zWAN Gateway Routers are on-prem hardware appliances for organizations that need reliable multi-WAN connectivity, secure branch routing, firewall control, and cloud-managed SD-WAN operations.
Each gateway router integrates firewall, VPN, SD-WAN, WAN high availability, and security into a single appliance that can be deployed at small offices, branches, retail locations, remote sites, and larger enterprise edges.
Choose the zWAN deployment path that fits the environment.
Always online and secure
By leveraging multiple WAN services such as broadband, MPLS, 4G LTE, and 5G, zWAN helps keep datacenters, branch offices, and remote workers connected through available low-cost network links. The goal is simple: give IT more control over traffic flow, critical application performance, and site continuity.

zWAN Gateway Router use cases
Standalone Gateway Router
Use unmanaged WAN high availability today, with a path to convert into a managed gateway router later.
Always Connected Internet
Provide WAN high availability for unmanaged or managed sites that need reliable backup connectivity.
VPN Server or Concentrator
Support OpenVPN site-to-site tunnels with certificate or PSK authentication, centrally managed through zWAN Director.
SD-WAN Gateway Router
Use the hardware route for branch offices, remote sites, and datacenters that need a physical edge.
Layer 7 Firewall Security
Plan for NGFW, IPS/IDS, DDoS, FQDN filtering, DNS filtering, and anti-adware capabilities.
Fast Deployment
Install and deploy quickly when a site needs a practical branch-edge path without a long hardware project.
Benefits
Why network teams evaluate zWAN Gateway Router

Use broadband, MPLS, 4G LTE, and 5G paths to improve site uptime and keep business traffic moving.
WAN High Availability
Configure primary, secondary, and tertiary WAN paths for backup connectivity and network balancing.
Integrated Security
Combine firewall, VPN, SD-WAN, and security functions in one branch-edge appliance.
Cloud Managed Control
Connect gateway routers to zWAN Director for centralized management, visibility, and policy workflows.
Branch and Remote Fit
Support small-to-medium offices, branches, retail locations, remote sites, datacenters, and remote users.
Fast Site Deployment
Use a repeatable hardware path when a location needs practical edge connectivity without a long rollout cycle.
Who it's for
Built for branch, security, and infrastructure teams
Branch Network Teams
Standardize routing, firewall, carrier handoff, and failover at the physical edge.
Security Operations
Add a hardened appliance layer where gateway security and local network control are required.
Distributed Enterprises
Support small offices, branch sites, retail locations, remote sites, and larger edge deployments with a practical appliance path.
SD-WAN Evaluators
Pair gateway hardware with zWAN when uptime, policy, cloud access, and traffic control need to be tested together.
Compliance-Minded IT Teams
Evaluate firewall, filtering, IDS/IPS, SSL inspection, malware protection, and policy enforcement in one edge workflow.
Deployment Partners
Use a repeatable edge platform for site turn-up, configuration, documentation, and support handoff.
