ProSafe Wireless-N 8-Port Gigabit VPN Firewall FVS318N
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This feature greatly simplifies
configuration of computers on your local network.
DNS prox
y. When DHCP is enabled and no DNS addresses are specified, the firewall
provides its own address as a DNS server to the attached computers. The firewall obtains
actual DNS addresses from the ISP during connection setup and forwards DNS requests
from the LAN.
PPP
over Ethernet (PPPoE). PPPoE is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the
Internet over a DSL connection by simulating a dial-up connection.
Qua
lity of Service (QoS). The wireless VPN firewall supports QoS.
Laye
r 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP). A tunneling protocol that is used to support virtual
private networks (VPNs).
Easy Installation and Management
You can install, configure, and operate the wireless VPN firewall within minutes after
connecting it to the network. The following features simplify installation and management
tasks:
Bro
wser-based management. Browser-based configuration allows you to easily
configure the wireless VPN firewall from almost any type of operating system, such as
Windows, Macintosh, or Linux. Online help documentation is built into the browser-based
web management interface.
Auto-detec
tion of ISP. The wireless VPN firewall automatically senses the type of
Internet connection, asking you only for the information required for your type of ISP
account.
IPSec VPN W
izard. The wireless VPN firewall includes the NETGEAR IPSec VPN
Wizard so you can easily configure IPSec VPN tunnels according to the
recommendations of the Virtual Private Network Consortium (VPNC). This ensures that
the IPSec VPN tunnels are interoperable with other VPNC-compliant VPN routers and
clients.
SNMP. The
wireless VPN firewall supports the Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) to let you monitor and manage log resources from an SNMP-compliant system
manager. The SNMP system configuration lets you change the system variables for
MIB2.
Diagnosti
c functions. The wireless VPN firewall incorporates built-in diagnostic
functions such as ping, traceroute, DNS lookup, and remote reboot.
Remote m
anagement. The wireless VPN firewall allows you to log in to the web
management interface from a remote location on the Internet. For security, you can limit
remote management access to a specified remote IP address or range of addresses.
V
isual monitoring. The wireless VPN firewall’s front panel LEDs provide an easy way to
monitor its status and activity.
