Chapter 6
Router and Network Management
This chapter describes how to use the network management features of your ProSafe VPN
Firewall 50. These features can be found by clicking on the appropriate heading in the Main Menu
of the browser interface.
The ProSafe VPN Firewall 50 offers many tools for managing the network traffic to optimize its
performance. You can also control administrator access, be alerted to important events requiring
prompt action, monitor the firewall status, perform diagnostics, and manage the firewall
configuration file.
Performance Management
Performance management consists of controlling the traffic through the VPN firewall so that the
necessary traffic gets through when there is a bottleneck and either reducing unnecessary traffic or
rescheduling some traffic to low-peak times to prevent bottlenecks from occurring in the first
place. The VPN firewall has the necessary features and tools to help the network manager
accomplish these goals.
VPN Firewall Features That Reduce Traffic
Features of the VPN firewall that can be called upon to decrease WAN-side loading are as follows:
Service Blocking
Block Sites
Source MAC Filtering
