What Is the ProSAFE Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN
Firewall SRX5308?
The ProSAFE Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN Firewall SRX5308, hereafter referred to as the
VPN firewall, connects your local area network (LAN) to the Internet through up to four
external broadband access devices such as cable or DSL modems or satellite or wireless
Internet dishes. Four wide area network (WAN) ports allow you to increase effective data rate
to the Internet by utilizing all WAN ports to carry session traffic or to maintain backup
connections in case of failure of your primary Internet connection.
The VPN firewall routes both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic. A powerful, flexible firewall protects your
IPv4 and IPv6 networks from denial of service (DoS) attacks, unwanted traffic, and traffic with
objectionable content. IPv6 traffic is supported through 6to4 and Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel
Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) tunnels.
The VPN firewall is a security solution that protects your network from attacks and intrusions.
For example, the VPN firewall provides support for stateful packet inspection (SPI), denial of
service (DoS) attack protection, and multi-NAT support. The VPN firewall supports multiple
web content filtering options, plus browsing activity reporting and instant alerts—both through
email. Network administrators can establish restricted access policies based on time of day,
website addresses, and address keywords.
The VPN firewall provides advanced IPSec and SSL VPN technologies for secure and simple
remote connections. The use of Gigabit Ethernet LAN and WAN ports ensures high data
transfer speeds.
The VPN firewall is a plug-and-play device that can be installed and configured within
minutes.
