Introduction
v1.0, November 2007
•
DNS Proxy
. When DHCP is enabled and no DNS addresses are specified, the firewall
provides its own address as a DNS server to the attached PCs. The firewall obtains actual DNS
addresses from the ISP during connection setup and forwards DNS requests from the LAN.
•
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
. PPPoE is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet
over a DSL connection by simulating a dial-up connection. This feature eliminates the need to
run a login program such as EnterNet or WinPOET on your PC.
Easy Installation and Management
You can install, configure, and operate the ProSafe Quad WAN Gigabit Firewall within minutes
after connecting it to the network. The following features simplify installation and management
tasks:
•
Browser-Based Management.
Browser-based configuration allows you to easily configure
your firewall from almost any type of personal computer, such as Windows, Macintosh, or
Linux. A user-friendly Setup Wizard is provided and online help documentation is built into
the browser-based Web Management Interface.
•
Auto Detect
. The quad WAN gigabit firewall automatically senses the type of Internet
connection, asking you only for the information required for your type of ISP account.
•
SNMP.
The quad WAN gigabit firewall supports the Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) to let you monitor and manage log resources from an SNMP-compliant system
manager. The SNMP system configuration lets you change the system variables for MIB2.
•
Diagnostic Functions
. The firewall incorporates built-in diagnostic functions such as Ping,
Trace Route, DNS lookup, and remote reboot.
•
Remote Management
. The firewall allows you to login to the Web Management Interface
from a remote location on the Internet. For security, you can limit remote management access
to a specified remote IP address or range of addresses, and you can choose a nonstandard port
number.
•
Visual monitoring
. The quad WAN gigabit firewall’s front panel LEDs provide an easy way
to monitor its status and activity.
