About LAN Bypass
In network security application, it is very important to ensure that network traffic to continue
passing through the device even if hardware failure occurs or operating system crashes. LAN
bypass gives us a solution for this problem.
The
Vengeance 3
LAN bypass function is very flexible. It can be selected at any time and any
stage. You can enable LAN bypass for power on state by BIOS, or by software program when
entering into the OS.
Moreover, for power off state, you can set up LAN Bypass through BIOS, or use software
program when entering into the
OS. If you don’t do any change, the state will keep the
previous power off state.
The
Vengeance 3
’s LAN bypass capability with the special designed latch relay circuitry.
When LAN bypass function is enabled, a relay closes to act as a bridge to route
network data flow between LAN module
’s LAN port 0 and LAN port 1 (or LAN port 2 and
LAN port 3 etc.). The bypass feature can be activated immediately or according to timer which
is configurable from 1 up to 64 seconds. You can write a software program to control bypass
operation behavior to fit your requirement. A LAN bypass sample program is provided on
website or contact our FAE directly.
