Detailed Info
What you'll get when you set your connection free
Service Level Agreement
The integrity of your service is protected by our first class business Service Level Agreement (SLA) that’s both comprehensive and competitive. In the unlikely event that our Big Red variant of Managed Internet Access (MIA) service fails to meet its targets, we’ll credit your service. See how Managed Internet Access works.

Our dedicated team of Business Solution Consultants are on hand to ensure your requirements are met to a ‘T’. They’ll happily manage everything from start to finish.
Online reporting
Online reporting allows you to track your connection performance in an easy-to-view graphic format via a browser.
Domain Name Services
Domain names say so much about you. We’ll register or transfer any on your behalf to host on our Primary and Secondary DNS servers. We’ll also ensure that domain name records are kept up to date.
SMTP mail backup - Our MIA service provides you with the facility to use the Virgin Media Business SMTP backup service as a Secondary server to your mail server. In the event of your Primary email server being unavailable, incoming email can be received by our service. It’ll be stored and forwarded on to your Primary email server as soon as it’s available.
Security options
Managed Firewall
A firewall is an essential component of any internet connection. A MIA Firewall from Virgin Media Business can be provided in addition to your Big Red variant of MIA service to help secure your business releasing you from the burden of monitoring and maintaining a firewall solution. More about MIA Firewall.
Managed VPN
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) can be deployed in conjunction with your MIA service to provide a cost effective and secure way to connect remote sites and remote users to your networked applications and resources. More about VPN.
IPSec VPN access provides cost effective ways to securely connect remote sites to your centrally hosted applications and resources. Whether you’re a small organisation with a few remote sites you wish to connect, or a large organisation with many distributed sites, we can design a solution specific to your needs. By providing a secure, private tunnel between devices, it's an ideal way to extend your private network across the Internet. See how to extend your network with IPSec VPN.
SSL VPN uses a browser to establish a secure SSL connection to your internal systems. It delivers real flexibility, removing the burden of installing and maintaining software on any device and enabling precise control of end users. It’s also ideal for providing remote access for Employees, Customers and Partners from any type of end user device, from any location. Find out how SSL VPN works.
