Network Security Firewall for SOHO
The DFL-200 VPN Firewall delivers complete network protection and Virtual Private Network (VPN) services for the small office environment. This device provides an economical yet dependable solution for protection against content-based threats, along with content filtering, firewall, VPN and intrusion detection. This allows you to effectively detect and defeat Internet attacks, prevent misuse and improve the quality of key network applications without degrading the performance of your network as a whole.

Designed for SOHO
If your office is connected to the Internet or linked to the corporate network and trusted suppliers through an Intranet, it is vulnerable to attacks. The DFL-200 is a compact and easy-to-install unit that can address the needs of a SOHO network. With functionalities typically found in more expensive units, this device combines extensive firewall protection with Internet gateway functions, eliminating the need to install a separate firewall behind a router. A DMZ port is provided to allow your web, mail and FTP servers to be directly accessed from the Internet. This prevents server traffic from entering the internal network, while providing your office LAN with firewall protection. A built-in 4-port switch allows your workstations to directly connect to the firewall/router, saving you the cost and trouble of installation a separate Fast Ethernet switch.

Firewall
The DFL-200 provides Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and inbound/outbound filters for your network. Virtual IP mapping maps public IP addresses to servers on the internal and DMZ networks for secure public access. The DFL-200 detects DoS (Denial of Service) attacks against your systems and applications, alerting you of these attacks by e-mail.

IPSec VPN
Industry-standard IPSec, PPTP and L2TP VPN provide secure communication between networks and clients. The DFL-200 provides Auto-Key Internet Key Exchange (IKE) and hardware accelerated DES and 3DES encryption. Client pass-through support is provided for IPSec, PPTP and L2TP.

Logging
Logging allows you to monitor your network. The DFL-200 provides extensive logging for filtering, session tracking, intrusion detection and user authentication activities. Logs can be easily searched by keywords, source, destination, time and date.

Setup and Management
Web-based configuration provides easy system setup and administration. Industry-standard MIBs are built into the device for platform-independent SNMP-based management and monitoring. A Command Line Interface is provided for you to set up and configure the device from a console, using the built-in RS-232 port.
