Description of the Contivity 5000
The Contivity 5000 is a high-performance, business-class IP services gateway that
enables scalable, secure, and robust IP VPNs across the public data network. The
Contivity 5000 uses the infrastructure of the Internet to replace traditional remote
access gear.
The Contivity 5000 provides routing, firewall, bandwidth management,
encryption, authentication, and data integrity services to ensure secure tunneling
across IP networks and the Internet. An individual user or group of users can be
associated with a set of attributes that provide custom access to an extranet.
Note: Before you install the chassis, make sure that all network wiring
has been installed on the premises using standard cable system practices.
