The CF401VPN is the perfect solution to protect your network from external threats (hackers, invasions, etc) while providing safe VPN connections to remote networks. It also blocks undesirable web sites and works as a DHCP server, assigning IP numbers to the computers of your network while releasing a computer from that task.
The CF401VPN is a firewall, a high bandwidth router, and a 4 port switch that can connect securely to remote networks through VPN (Virtual Private Network) tunnels. VPN is an encryption mechanism that makes safe connections possible between networks over the internet. The VPN tunnel can use IPSec or PPTP (Windows VPN). The CF401VPN can connect with other VPN capable products, like the HotBrick VPN Client or Windows PPTP VPN. It is an outstanding high performance and cost effective product.
The CF401VPN is ideal for those who need to share their high bandwidth internet connection with several users securely.
The CF401VPN was developed to respond to the needs of small offices and home users who connect to the internet using a high bandwidth connection and need a safe and simple internet sharing solution. Up to 4 users can connect directly to CF401VPN ports, or up to 253 users using hubs and switches. The CF401VPN is easy and simple to install and requires no specific network knowledge.
The CF401VPN provides firewall protection against attempted attacks and invasions. It has NAT (Network Address Translation), SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection), anti DoS (Denial of Service) features and provides attack alerts via email.
The content filter blocks a users access to certain online applications such as Web, email, chat rooms, peer-to-peer applications and online games.
Objectionable web content is automatically filtered by the content filter server.
Before any PC on the LAN is allowed access to the Internet, the CF401 VPN must first log into the Content Filter System.
Once logged in, the user is subjected to the content filter rules defined by the content filter server.
