4-9
Intrusion Protection System (IPS)
This function monitors the packets on the network and detects and blocks the packets,
which can damage the network operation, making the network more stably operated.
The IPS is divided into various types from a detection type where a specific-type attack is
detected to the abnormal traffic detecting type, which are based on the Snort Rule
(www.snort.org) defining the intrusion pattern and types. The detected packets are sorted
and processed into close connection/port or service disable/Alarm/log based on the
intrusion pattern and the level and processed. In the case of an alarm, the system will
immediately notify the system administrator and protect the packets.
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
VPN function
The system provides the private network function by using the Internet that is an open
network. The OfficeServ 7200 provides the VPN gateway function based on the IPSec
(IP Security), which is useful to build the enterprise network with reduced cost and
enforced security by using a public network such as the Internet rather than the
dedicated network.
VPN Transparent Mode
The data server operates as a VPN client and establishes a VPN channel to a remote
VPN equipment to enable data transmission. This mode provides the interface function
between each OfficeServ 7200 based on the IPSec and the 3DES and RSA coding
function.
VPN Tunnel Mode
By establishing a tunnel through the VPN gateways between the OfficeServ 7200 data
servers the VPN functions are processed. Up to 100 VPN channels are available for one
VPN.
