Application Delivery Controller
The control plane for enterprise application traffic.
TR7 ADC publishes, routes, accelerates, protects, and makes application traffic observable — from a single point. From HTTP/3 down to legacy TCP/UDP services, it manages diverse workloads on one platform; load balancing, SSL/TLS, traffic optimization, health monitoring, security, and reporting converge in a single operator UI.
Right request. Right service. Uninterrupted delivery.
All of TR7 ADC's capabilities — service types, algorithms, rules, masking, and access control — work toward a single purpose: getting the right request to the right server, fast, securely, and under control.
What Is an ADC? Load Balancing, Enterprise-Grade
A classical load balancer distributes connections across servers. A modern ADC goes further: it terminates SSL/TLS, accelerates traffic, monitors service health, preserves session continuity, applies rule-based routing, and makes application traffic observable. TR7 ADC is the enterprise application-delivery layer that brings all of this together on a single platform.
From HTTP/3 and QUIC down to legacy TCP/UDP services, different protocols are published through the same engine. With TLS 1.3, modern cipher policies, and post-quantum hybrid key exchange, today's traffic is carried securely while tomorrow's cryptographic requirements are already in scope.
TR7 ADC is not a load balancer with features bolted on; it is an ADC designed from the ground up for application delivery. Service types, algorithms, rules, masking, and access control all work toward a single purpose: getting the right request to the right server — fast, securely, and under control.
Three enterprise capabilities ship inside every ADC license
TR7 ADC doesn't just distribute traffic; it protects and makes application traffic visible. Adaptive L4 DDoS, adaptive L7 DDoS, and on-device L7 reporting come standard with every ADC license — at sensible default limits. No extra appliance, no separate management server, no different product family. When your environment grows, a matched add-on scales on the same data path; the architecture stays intact.
Adaptive L4 DDoS Protection
Learns your network's normal traffic behavior and detects deviations against that baseline. SYN floods, UDP floods, reflection, amplification, and protocol anomalies are brought under control while legitimate user traffic stays unaffected.
More route tables to protect?L4 DDoS Add-onAdaptive L7 DDoS Protection
Learns each application's normal request behavior on a per-vService basis. HTTP floods, slow-loris, brute-force login attempts, bot traffic, and content-aware anomalies are filtered the moment they deviate from the application's actual normal — without breaking the legitimate user experience.
More vServices to protect?L7 DDoS Add-onOn-Device L7 Reporting
Monitors and reports L7 requests on the appliance itself. User behavior, TLS details, error patterns, security decisions, and traffic trends are all followed from the same console. Operational visibility without standing up a separate reporting server.
More vServices to report on?L7 Reporting Add-onOne delivery engine — from HTTP/3 to legacy TCP/UDP services
Enterprise applications aren't just HTTP. APIs, web apps, database connections, mail services, DNS, syslog, VoIP, gaming traffic, and bespoke TCP/UDP protocols all share the same environment. TR7 ADC publishes these services on a single platform — no separate product, separate UI, or separate operating model per protocol.
HTTP / HTTPS services
Full Layer-7 termination for modern web and API traffic. SSL/TLS offload, re-encryption, host/path-based routing, content rewriting, caching, compression, and security headers — all managed per vService.
- HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3 listeners
- SSL/TLS termination + re-encryption
- Per-service host- and path-based routing
- Rules, profiles, custom block pages
TCP services (L7)
Connection-aware TCP proxy for non-HTTP applications. Connection management, TLS termination, re-encryption, and traffic shaping for databases, mail, message queues, and bespoke TCP applications.
- Any TCP protocol — database connections, message queues, mail servers (SMTP/IMAP/POP3), custom TCP applications
- SSL/TLS termination + re-encryption to backend
- Connection limits, timeouts, traffic protection
- Protocol-aware traffic shaping
Network services (L3/L4)
High-performance L3/L4 forwarding for TCP and UDP workloads. Suitable for DNS, syslog, VoIP, RTP, gaming servers, and any service that doesn't need the HTTP stack.
- TCP and UDP at line rate
- Seven L3/L4 algorithms
- Direct routing, NAT/route, and SNAT modes
- Connection-table-free forwarding for UDP
Every protocol becomes a service object — same UI, same profile model, same policy semantics. When a new application type arrives, you add a service, not a new product.
Load balancing
13 algorithms, 9 session-persistence methods, and 7+ deployment topologies. Each chosen per vService, switchable live.
Load balancing is not a side feature of an ADC; it is the core function. TR7 ADC lets you pick the right algorithm, the right persistence method, and the right network topology per vService for each application type. Changes apply live; operations continue without dropping active connections.
13 algorithms — selectable per vService
From round-robin to Maglev hash, all the way to the TR7 Fastest+ engine: pick the algorithm that matches the traffic character. Static content, APIs, stateful applications, and caching layers can run on the same appliance under different algorithms; the choice is made per vService and is changeable live.
TR7 Fastest+ — computes the fastest backend for every request
Round-robin picks the next server in line; least-connections picks the one with fewest active connections. Fastest+ combines 8 live signals from each healthy backend to compute a current speed score per request. No external monitoring needed; the signals are measured from the traffic TR7 carries.
Nine ways to keep a user on the right backend
Shopping carts, admin panels, banking sessions, RDP gateways and other stateful flows need the user to stay on the same backend. TR7 ADC offers 9 persistence methods, selectable per vService. SAM (Session Affinity Manager) configures cookie source, session format, and security flags from the UI — no backend application changes required.
Place TR7 ADC in your network — without touching the backends
The hardest part of ADC deployment is often fitting the network to the product, not the other way around. TR7 ADC offers 7+ topology modes — one-arm, two-arm, reverse proxy, transparent L7 bind, L2 bridge, transparent gateway, and IP-takeover inline — so you take over traffic without changing backend IPs, default gateways, or application configs.
Every baseline capability an enterprise ADC must have
SSL/TLS, certificate lifecycle, health checks, traffic rules, optimization, error pages, and live visibility are all built in. All managed from the same UI, all updated live without breaking connections.
SSL / TLS acceleration
TLS termination, modern cipher policies, and secure re-encryption to backend — accelerate application traffic without compromising on crypto.
mTLS client certificate authentication
Validate client identity at the TLS layer; protect critical services with certificate-based access without touching application code.
URL and path rewriting
Translate between legacy URL structures, partner paths, and modern endpoint schemes without touching application code.
Active health monitoring
Continuously probe every backend; pull unhealthy targets out of rotation before users feel it.
Response caching
Returns frequently requested responses without hitting the backend; reduces latency and lightens server load.
Per-vService traffic shaping
Apply connection limits, timeouts, and traffic protection settings live, per vService.
Custom block and error pages
Build branded block and error pages aligned to your corporate design; control the user experience.
Live traffic tracking
Search, filter, and watch the live request stream; see problems during operations, not after they hit the log file.
Build traffic rules without scripts. Roll them out without restarts.
Classical ADCs often hide advanced routing and security logic behind vendor-specific scripting languages. TR7 ADC delivers the same flexibility through visual, declarative rules. Rules, profiles, and certificates apply to live traffic; no service restart, no dropped connection.
Content-aware rules
Route, rate-limit, deny, or rewrite based on traffic attributes — headers, paths, query, method, IP, geography, and parsed JSON body values. Logic is built as a visual rule; no scripting.
DetailsSmart ACL conditions
Combine header, geography, ASN, time window, request method, and body fields into composite access conditions. No proprietary DSL to learn; everything is managed through the rule builder.
DetailsHot configuration reload
Update rules, profiles, certificates, route tables, and backend pools live. Active connections are preserved; the maintenance window shrinks.
DetailsMask sensitive data before it leaves the network
When an application accidentally returns a card number, national ID, API key, or any other sensitive field, catching it in the SIEM is too late. TR7 ADC inspects responses before they reach the client, masks sensitive fields based on policy, and stops data leakage at the egress moment.
Sensitive data masking
Detect PII, PAN, credentials, and custom regex patterns in response bodies; mask them before they reach the client to lower data-egress risk.
DetailsData leakage prevention
Catch sensitive data before it leaves your network. Apply policy at the ADC layer even when the application team hasn't tagged a field as sensitive.
DetailsIP masking and normalization
Normalize or mask client IPs for privacy-friendly logging, cohort routing, or data minimization.
DetailsIntelligent protection, under operator control
TR7 ADC learns the normal behavior of application and network traffic; it catches DDoS deviations early, validates bot suspicions through a local CAPTCHA, and applies defensive actions under operator control. A transparent, enterprise-grade protection layer — no black-box automation, no third-party JavaScript, no unnecessary data egress.
Adaptive DDoS learning
TR7 learns your environment's normal from signals like request rate, connection pattern, and geographic distribution. Defense thresholds run against an operator-confirmed baseline, not a blind automation.
DetailsSelf-hosted CAPTCHA
The CAPTCHA challenge runs on the ADC itself. No third-party JavaScript, no validation data leaving your network — a more controlled model for GDPR, CCPA, PCI DSS 4.0, and similar compliance contexts.
DetailsYour appliance obtains, installs, and renews SSL certificates
Buying certificates, verifying domains, tracking expirations, and managing renewal risk is the old operational model. TR7 ADC manages the certificate lifecycle automatically through ACME-supported certificate authorities: it requests, validates, installs, applies to vServices, and renews before expiry.
Free — really
Certificates come from well-known ACME-supporting certificate authorities. Browser-trusted CAs, no per-certificate fee, no manual renewal toil.
DetailsEnd-to-end automation
TR7 ADC requests the certificate, validates ownership through HTTP or DNS challenge, installs it on the system, binds it to the relevant vServices, and renews in the background.
DetailsEnterprise and private-CA support
Enterprise or private certificate authorities that support ACME work through the same mechanism. Public CA, private CA, or internal PKI — the same certificate-lifecycle model applies.
DetailsBroad protocol coverage on a single platform
Enterprise traffic isn't only web. FTP, UDP, syslog, DNS, VoIP, and bespoke protocols are part of the same operation. TR7 ADC manages these diverse workloads through one UI, one profile model, and one rule semantics.
Three service types on one platform
HTTP, TCP (L7), and Network (L3/L4) services are published on a single platform. No separate product family, no separate management UI, no separate policy model.
DetailsFTP proxy
A protocol-aware front-end for legacy FTP workloads. Control channel is inspected; connections flow through the modern ADC layer.
DetailsUDP load balancing
High-performance forwarding and load balancing for UDP workloads — DNS, gaming, syslog, VoIP, RTP.
DetailsSyslog proxy
Route, filter, and shape syslog streams before they reach the collectors; bring log traffic behavior under control.
DetailsDNS proxy
Proxy, cache, firewall, and modern DoT/DoH/DoQ flows for DNS traffic — managed at the same gateway.
DetailsThe delivery layer is the foundation of the platform
TR7 ADC publishes the application. TR7 WAAP protects it. TR7 AAM decides who can reach it. TR7 GTM routes traffic to the right region. Four products; one platform, one operator UI, and a shared backend-services pool — they work together.
- Backend resources (services, certificates, health checks)
- Reports and logs
- Users and RBAC
- Multi-tenancy
Each pillar is an independently licensed product; they share the same operator UI, backend-service definitions, certificate store, and reporting plane. That's why running the products together takes minutes, not weeks.
