ADTRAN NetVanta 2050 - Security appliance - Ethernet, Fast Ethernet - external

The ADTRAN NetVanta 2050 is small office/home office VPN/Security gateway providing all the necessary components required to secure an integrated VPN solution. Used primarily for remote access, the NetVanta 2050 is perfect for work-at-home telecommuters. It provides key security and data management features such as IPSec VPN tunneling, stateful inspection firewall, built-in router, authenticated remote user access, and Network Address Translation. On a public infrastructure like the Internet, security is of the utmost importance. The NetVanta 2050 protects the corporate network against attacks with a built-in firewall and provides data security through encryption, authentication and key exchange. The NetVanta 2050 employs a stateful inspection firewall that protects an organization's network from common cyber attacks including TCP synflooding, IP spoofing, ICMP redirect, land attacks, ping-of-death, and IP reassembly problems. It also encrypts the data being sent out onto the network, using either the DES (Data Encryption Standard) or 3DES encryption algorithms. In addition, Internet Key Exchange (IKE) can be used for user authentication supporting public and private keys or digital certificates, assuring that the proper VPN tunnel is established and that the tunnel has not been redirected or compromised. The NetVanta 2050 is IPSec compliant device that provides secure communication over potentially unsecure network components. As a security gateway, the NetVanta 2050 can provide five private encryption communication tunnels supporting up to 15 users. With the use of Network Address Translation (NAT), it can hide IP addresses from the external world. In addition, the internal router allows multiple users to share a VPN connection and can also direct incoming IP traffic. A remote NetVanta 2050 can easily be configured and managed using a standard web browser. This device offers built-in alert and logging mechanisms to warn administrators about activities that are going on in the network. Unlike a software-implemented VPN solution, which depends on local CPU and memory performance to implement encryption, this standalone hardware platform off-loads the CPU intensive encryption process. 3DES encryption significantly impacts CPU performance, possibly slowing all the local processes on the computer. Since the NetVanta 2050 offers a dedicated processing platform to drive the encryption process, local computer performance is unaffected. The NetVanta 2050 offers guaranteed interoperability with ADTRAN's complete line of NetVanta 2000 Series of VPN/Security gateways: NetVanta 2300 for branch offices or as a mid-size host, NetVanta 2400 for larger corporate host applications, and the software implemented, NetVanta VPN Client. Together the NetVanta 2000 Series offers the most robust features and functions to address a wide range of enterprise VPN needs.
