Inter
Lynx/
TS
Introduction
The InterLynx/TS is a Firewall/VPN device
targeted at the remote office environment. It
provides an economical yet powerful firewall for
your Ethernet network. At the same time, its
Virtual Private Network (VPN) capabilities allow
you to use the power of the Internet as the
backbone of your remote office communications,
with the Total Security protection you’d expect
from 3 DES encryption.
If you’ve been struggling with the conflict between secure communications and cost-effective
communications, the solution is here. Low cost communications is now available over the Internet,
while the InterLynx/TS provides the high level of security you need.
It is a Firewall with plenty of firepower.
Built on a heavy-duty platform with a
high-speed CPU, the
IL/TS has the power to block unwanted traffic, both inbound and outbound. The built-in firewall is
configurable to pass only the traffic you need. IP masquerading (NAT) prevents those on the outside
from seeing the IP addresses on the inside.
It is a VPN.
For data security,
you need more
than just a
firewall. If you
need a cost-
saving alternative
to leased lines,
the Internet offers
a part of the
solution. DSL or
ISDN links to your
ISP can provide
the bandwidth
you need for several offices, at a fraction of the cost of
multiple leased lines. Your remote offices then only
need to be able to access the Internet (even via dial-
up) in order to make a connection. The only issue that
remains is that
the Internet is a
public
information
highway, yet you need your data to remain
private
.
Drop a pair of InterLynx/TS units in between any two
offices and create a VPN.
All
of the data between the
two offices is 168 bit encrypted. It would take a year
for a supercomputer to break the encryption key, but
ours is changed automatically every two hours
(configurable, of course).
