Barricade™ Plus
SMC7004FW
Cable/DSL Broadband Router with VPN
The Barricade Plus Broadband Router (SMC7004FW) is the ideal networking
solution for both the home and business user. This platform independent
multifunction router combines a 4-port 10/100 Mbps dual speed switch, and a
robust Stateful Inspection firewall into one convenient device. The Barricade
Plus supports various network protocols, such as TCP/IP and NetBEUI, while also
providing support for VPN connections with PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec passthrough.
The Barricade Plus Broadband Router (SMC7004FW) provides a 10/100 Mbps
WAN port for high-speed integration into your network. Supporting Network
Address Translation (NAT), the Barricade can provide simultaneous Internet
access for up to 253 PC's. The Barricade Plus will provide this access through a
single IP address, purchased from your ISP. To manage these connections, this
NAT router has a built-in DHCP server to auto-assign IP addresses to devices
on your network. By using the built-in web-based interface, you can configure
this router to handle IP routing and port forwarding through the Virtual Server
option. For added management, the router also has a full-featured Access Control
option. The integrated feature allows you to filter traffic through your network
based on scheduled time, IP address, or MAC address. The Barricade Plus
Broadband Router (SMC7004FW) has an integrated Stateful Packet Inspection
(SPI) firewall feature to provide a high level of security against hacker invasions,
such as Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. The highly efficient SPI firewall analyzes
individual data packets, as they pass through the Barricade, to ensure that only
authorized packets are allowed access to your network. To control network
access, parents or business owners can block certain web sites by entering either
a URL address or just a keyword of the web site. In addition to these incredible
features, this latest addition to the Barricade family also provides hacker
prevention and logging functionalities. For example, when a hacker attempts to
access your network, the Barricade Plus can alert you via email so you can take
appropriate action. To complement the incorporated SPI firewall functions, the
Barricade Plus router has a built-in VPN tunnel that supports multiple IPSec and
PPTP Client/Server connections. This VPN functionality is the perfect solution
for remotely accessing a network securely by establishing an authenticated and
encrypted tunnel over the Internet. No matter what connection you set up, you
can be well assured that your data is being transmitted and exchanged in the
most secure manner. This integrated VPN connection is an ideal solution for
individuals who telecommute from home or small offices that need to create a
single VPN connection to securely connect to remote offices, but do not want
the hassle of a confusing server setup. The Barricade Plus Broadband Router is a
comprehensive networking solution for PC or Mac users, and is backed by SMC's
limited lifetime warranty.
