Place application traffic in front of service tiers with the Alteon D-6024S platform configured for 30 Gbps throughput. This application delivery controller belongs at the network edge of a business application, web-service, or virtual-service environment where incoming client connections need to be directed toward available application resources. The 30 Gbps designation identifies the performance configuration associated with this orderable version. Cisco RD-6024S-30G-HD carries the D-6024S designation and HPP Deliver designation. That distinction matters when matching an existing Alteon deployment: the D-6024S identifies the platform family, while the RD-6024S-30G-HD ordering code identifies the 30G configuration being ordered. It is intended for application-delivery roles rather than ordinary Ethernet access switching, routing, or server hardware. Use this configuration where application traffic requires a dedicated control point before it reaches web, API, or other application services. The appliance role supports traffic distribution as part of an application availability architecture, allowing services to be presented through a controlled front end instead of exposing individual back-end resources directly. Select it when the required platform designation is D-6024S and the deployment calls for the 30 Gbps performance tier. HPP Deliver is included in the product designation and should be retained when matching the required configuration.
