Mushroom Networks SD-WAN
San Diego, California, United States
What it is
Mushroom Networks SD-WAN is a hybrid networking offering built around Truffle appliances and software. Truffle can integrate up to 16 internet transports, including MPLS and 5G. Application profiles, overlay tunnels, quality-of-service controls, and WAN-condition monitoring adjust traffic handling as conditions change. Mushroom describes the system as learning from network variations and flow patterns to automate problem resolution. A cloud portal provides visibility and remote access to customer-premises equipment, with zero-touch provisioning, layer-7 DPI, SNMP, and Netflow visibility. Appliances can run in pass-through mode or provide firewall and routing functions. Truffle V runs WAN orchestration on a virtual machine using standard branch or data-center hardware. Packet-level bonding requires Mushroom’s Cloud Relay Service or a customer-hosted relay; standalone mode distributes separate sessions across links. Tunnel security is configurable, including AES-128, an AES-256 option, and TLS/SRP authentication. Pricing varies by model and configuration and requires a quote.
