Big Network FAQ

How is Big Network different from a traditional VPN?
Instead of tunneling everyone through a single choke point, BigNetwork builds a private, encrypted overlay where each node talks peer-to-peer—no fragile concentrator to babysit.

Can I bond multiple ISPs for more uptime?
Yes. BigNetwork can aggregate diverse links and fail over automatically, keeping sessions alive when a circuit drops.

Does this work on mobile devices?
Absolutely. Our Big Apps run on iOS and Android, giving phones and tablets full access like they’re on-site.

Is Layer-2 bridging supported?
Yes. You can extend VLANs and broadcast domains across locations without MPLS or complex routing gymnastics.

How hard is deployment?
Most teams go from download to connected in minutes. No firewall surgery—Big Apps traverse NAT out of the box.
