This plug-and-play Internet security appliance provides all the necessary components required to secure an integrated VPN solution. It is a standalone hardware platform that off loads the CPU intensive encryption process associated with typical software-implemented VPN solutions. Targeting branch office, small office/home office (SOHO), and even business-to-business connectivity, the ADVANTA 2100 offers several key security features like IPSec VPN tunneling, access policies, stateful inspection firewall, cyber assault protection, Network Address Translation, and authenticated remote user access.The ADVANTA 2100 adheres to IPSec standards, established and maintained by IETF, enabling interoperability with many other IPSec compliant gateways, thereby allowing for a multi-vendor VPN solution that meets your needs. In addition, the ADVANTA 2100 can also act as a gateway for small businesses, allowing for safe and secure transactions. Stay tuned as ADTRAN expands the ADVANTA 2000 series to include medium to large business VPN gateways and total system management.
