About Your D-Link NetDefend firewall

The D-Link NetDefend firewall is a unified threat management (UTM) appliance
that enables secure high-speed Internet access from the office. Incorporating
software by SofaWare Technologies, an affiliate of Check Point Software
Technologies, the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, the NetDefend
Secured by Check Point Product Family includes both wired and wireless models.
The D-Link firewall, based on the world-leading Check Point Embedded NGX
Stateful Inspection technology, inspects and filters all incoming and outgoing
traffic, blocking all unauthorized traffic.
The NetDefend firewall also allows sharing your Internet connection among
several PCs or other network devices, enabling advanced office networking and
saving the cost of purchasing static IP addresses.
With the NetDefend firewall, you can subscribe to additional security services
available from select service providers, including firewall security and software
updates, Antivirus, Web Filtering, reporting, and VPN management. By supporting
integrated VPN capabilities, the NetDefend firewall allows teleworkers and road
warriors to securely connect to the office network, and enables secure
interconnection of branch offices.
