The
Linksys 10/100 16-Port VPN Router is an advanced Internet-sharing
network solution for your small business needs. Like any router,
it lets multiple computers in your office share an Internet
connection, but the 16 ports on this Router feature unprecedented
versatility. Two are dedicated Internet ports that let you
connect a second Internet line as a backup to ensure that you're
never disconnected. Or, you can use both Internet ports at
the same time, and let the router balance your office's requirements
between them for maximum bandwidth efficiency.
Not enough? Up to five of the thirteen full-duplex switched
10/100 Ethernet ports can be reconfigured as Internet ports,
for an up to seven-port failover or load balanced redundancy!
Finally, a dedicated DMZ port gives you a publicly accessible
channel so you can set up a web or FTP server, unimpeded
by the powerful security features of the Router.
The Virtual Private Network (VPN) capability creates encrypted "tunnels" through
the Internet, allowing up to 50 remote office or traveling
users to securely connect into your office network from off-site.
Users connecting through a VPN tunnel are attached to your
company's network -- with secure access to files, e-mail,
and your intranet -- just as if they were in the building.
You can also use the VPN capability to allow users on your
small office network to securely connect out to a corporate
network.
The 10/100 16-Port VPN Router can serve as a DHCP Server,
and has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against
intruders and most known Internet attacks. It can be configured
to filter internal users' access to the Internet, and has
IP address filtering so you can specify exactly who has access
to your network. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based
configuration utility.
As the heart of your small office network, the connection-redundant
Linksys 10/100 16-Port VPN Router gives you the connection
reliability your business needs. |
