Traffic Manager E-4000
Traffic manager is a multi function router, designed to cover the basic needs when buil-
ding wired or wireless, local or metropolitan networks. It's basic firewalling capabili-
ties and network address translations make it is easy to use for connecting a group of
computers to the internet. Class based traffic shaping allows to assign different custo-
mers different guaranteed bandwidths, but unused bandwidth could also be shared.
Quality of service could be achieved by classifying traffic not only by IP addresses, but
also by application protocols or type of service field (TOS). Security could be impro-
ved by limiting access only to specific clients with assigned IP addresses. The device
can be managed over serial port, or remotely by ssh or SNMP. IP traffic accounting
allows for measurement of transmitted data and could be used for charging by data
volume.
There are 3 models available:
W-2000 has 2 ethernet ports and 2 wireless ports that could be configured in fol-
lowing modes: AP (access point), SA (station adapter) and WB (wireless bridge).
The second port is built in to be able to get the internet feed for wireless network.
W-1000 has 4 ethernet ports and one wireless port that could be used in SA and
AdHoc modes. It is suitable as a single wireless access device.
E-4000 has 4 ethernet ports. Except for wireless capabilities, all the other features
are same for all the models.
Device functions:
- router, bridge
- firewall (allowing/denying specific ports), masquerading (source NAT)
- tcp port redirector, bootp relay
- support for IP aliases (multiple IP addresses on one interface), static routing table
- limiting access to the device based on MAC address even on the ethernet port
- class based traffic shaping with guaranteed bandwith and unused bandwith sharing
- classifying traffic by IP addresses, application ports and TOS field
- IP traffic accounting
- management via SNMP protocol or command line configuration (ssh, RS 232)
- firmware could be upgraded and configuration saved/restored via scp or tftp
- statistics, network diagnostics (ping, traceroute, iptraf, tcpdump)
- hardware watchdog for improved reliability
