Features:
- VRF-Lite Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF-Lite) allows multiple routing tables. As the routing instances are independant, the same or overlapping IPv4 addresses can be used.
- IPv6 transition technologies DS (Dual Stack) Lite, Lightweight 4over6, and MAP-E support connecting IPv4 networks over an IPv6 Internet connection.
- SD-WAN Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) enables users to measure the quality of their WAN links and send real-time and other applications over the most suitable connection. Users can also load-balance an application over multiple WAN links, as well as send specific applications to different remote-site or Internet-based destinations.
- Allied Telesis Unified Threat Management (UTM) Firewalls are the ideal integrated security platform for modern businesses. Powerful firewall and threat protection is combined with routing and switching, to provide an innovative high-performance solution.
High performance
High performance is guaranteed by harnessing the power of multi-core processors and application acceleration engines, as well as the ability to offload1 security and threat protection feature processing for increased throughput.
Application-aware Firewall
The Allied Telesis UTM Firewalls have a Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) engine that provides real-time, Layer 7 classification of network traffic. Rather than being limited to filtering packets based on protocols and ports, the firewall can determine the application associated with the packet. This allows Enterprises to differentiate business-critical from non-critical applications, and enforce security and acceptable use policies in ways that make sense for the business.
Secure Remote Virtual Private Networks (VPN)
Allied Telesis UTM Firewalls support IPSec site-to-site VPN connectivity to connect one or more branch offices to a central office, providing employees company-wide with consistent access to the corporate network. Multipoint VPN enables a single VPN to connect the central office to multiple branch offices. Remote workers can utilize an SSL VPN connection to encrypt their business data over the Internet, allowing them to utilize all their business resources when working from home, travelling, or otherwise away from the company premises.
Easy to manage
The firewalls run the advanced AlliedWare Plus™ fully featured operating system, with an industry standard CLI. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides a dashboard for monitoring, showing traffic throughput, security status, and application use at a glance.
Device and network management
The Device GUI on the AR4050S enables graphical monitoring of key switch features to support easy management. Integrated into the Device GUI, Vista Manager mini supports visibility and management of AMF wired and AWC wireless network devices, making it ideal as a one-stop solution for small to medium-sized networks. AWC is an intelligent, easy to use Wireless LAN controller that automatically maintains optimal wireless coverage. Vista Manager mini AWC floor and heat maps showing wireless coverage. It also supports AWC Channel Blanket hybrid operation, providing maximum performance and seamless roaming, as well as AWC Smart Connect for simplified deployment, and a resilient Wi-Fi network solution using wireless uplink connectivity. AMF Security (AMF-Sec) enables automatic protection from internal threats, to protect the LAN from malware by quarantining any suspect devices.
