Man at desk working on computer

Tailored to your needs: You choose the amount of wired and wireless support you need, whether you want to cover your network enterprise-wide or just the branch offices that lack local IT staff.

Adding sites and monitoring: We can help you add new sites quickly and easily, across town or across the globe. And we’ll keep an eye on your network so it’s up and running when you need it.

Getting started: Many organizations start their managed network journey by first adding our Managed WAN, and then Managed LAN or Managed WLAN. Or, they upgrade their networks with Managed SD Branch, which includes all three services under a single umbrella.

Integration with IMPACT: Managed LAN is integrated with the Verizon proprietary Integrated Management Platform for Advanced Communications Technologies (IMPACT) ecosystem.

Fault monitoring and control: A high-performance distributed monitoring and control system, IMPACT rapidly detects network faults and outages. It interfaces to internal systems for maintenance activities, outage notifications and contact information. 

Element management: IMPACT helps users to be more productive in daily tasks such as workflow, ticketing, topology information, task automation and command interaction capabilities.

Unified view: IMPACT interfaces with element management and network management systems of your Managed LAN to provide a unified view of network problems. 

Customer portal:  Get complete visibility into your Managed LAN 24/7 via the Verizon Enterprise Center (VEC) customer portal.

WAN Analysis Reporting: When combined with Managed WAN, our network engineering, network analysis and other WAN analysis reporting add an additional level of support.

FAQs

LAN stands for local area network, a group of devices networked together within a single limited area. Devices on the LAN connect via Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) ethernet or Wi-Fi and multiple users share the resources of a single processor or server, such as applications and data storage.

Managed LAN is a service delivered by a third-party provider to manage an organization’s local area network, freeing up IT staff to work on other, value-added projects. The provider manages operations, controls costs and maintains network reliability to specific benchmarks. With Managed LAN from Verizon, you can count on clear benchmarks and commitments to stringent SLAs for network performance.

The main difference is the on-premises equipment used to support the service. Today, Managed LAN and Managed Wireless LAN both include wireline and wireless components. Choose the solution that best meets your needs.

Managed LAN provides management of a customer’s wireline and wireless LAN components with a monthly recurring charge depending on the required level of customer support. Managed WAN provides management of a customer’s WAN application-aware router to make sure all your data travels the right path to its destination with a monthly recurring charge depending on the required level of customer support. Many of our customers start their managed network journey by adding our Managed WAN first, and then adding Managed LAN or Managed WLAN.

Managed LAN provides management of a customer’s wireline and wireless LAN equipment. Managed SD Branch provides management of a customer’s wireline and wireless LAN equipment plus SD WAN routers plus IoT devices such as smart cameras, all under a unified cloud-based management system.
