Security Features
•

. Optional password protection is provided to prevent
unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•
NAT Protection.
An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) technology is that
by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and even the existence of each
PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network, only a single device – the
IP-2000VPN.
•
Stateful Inspection Firewall.
All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server
requests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
•
Protection against DoS attacks.
DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your Internet
connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much bandwidth and so many
resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The IP-2000VPN incorporates protection
against DoS attacks.
•
Rule-based Policy Firewall.
To provide additional protection against malicious packets, you can
define your own firewall rules. This can also be used to control the Internet services available to LAN
users.
