VPNC certified, it initiates up to 8 IPsec VPN tunnels simultaneously, reducing your operating costs and maximizing the security of your network. With 8 auto-sensing, Auto Uplink™ switched LAN ports and Network Address Translation (NAT) routing, up to 253 users can access your broadband connection at the same time.

Business-Class Secure

The FVS318 initiates up to 8 IPsec VPN tunnels simultaneously, allowing for secured connections to branch offices and the “on-the-go” mobile workforce. Network Address Translation (NAT) routing enables shared access to your broadband connection. It also includes Web page URL content filtering and strong IPsec encryption and certificate support. Alerts include email notification of network activity–reporting and tracking of hacker attempts – as well as real-time alerts.

Well-Armed

The FVS318 has everything you want for maximum security coverage: true firewall using stateful packet inspection (SPI) and intrusion detection features, denial-of-service (DoS) attack protection, and VPN pass-through for extra security. And, new AES (256-bit) encryption security provides one of the most impenetrable encryption methods available. There’s even a Kensington Lock™ slot on the unit for theft protection. The FVS318 ProSafe VPN Firewall provides optimal value and defense against network security threats.
