Network Security & Firewalls

Allied Telesis Virtual Private Network (VPN) Firewalls are the ideal secure gateway for modern businesses. Powerful VPN functionality is combined with comprehensive routing and switching, providing an innovative high performance solution that is easy to use and very secure.

As businesses adapt to faster paced operations, with increasing amounts of data, and the need to access company resources from outside the office, the demand for high performance VPN connectivity becomes more urgent.

The AR2050V features comprehensive security and advanced networking capabilities, meeting the demands of distributed businesses that require multi-site VPNs.

High performance

Harnessing the power of multi-core processors and hardware acceleration engines guarantees high performance, by dramatically increasing throughput and enabling sustained low latency traffic inspection.

Powerful firewall

The firewall on the AR2050V inspects every packet passing through it, so different traffic types can be managed in line with business security policies. Allied Telesis VPN Firewalls are the ideal solution for enterprise and branch offices requiring secure online connectivity.

Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDS/IPS)

IDS/IPS is an intrusion detection and prevention system that protects your network from malicious traffic. IDS/IPS monitors inbound and outbound traffic, and identifies threats which may not be detected by the firewall alone.

Secure Remote VPNs

The Allied Telesis VPN Firewall supports IPSec site-to-site VPN connectivity to connect one or more branch offices to a central office, providing employees company-wide with consistent access to the corporate network.

Remote workers can utilize an SSL VPN connection to encrypt their business data over the Internet, allowing them to utilize all their business resources when working from home, travelling, or otherwise away from the company premises.

Comprehensive routing support

The security features of the VPN Firewall are complemented by advanced routing and switching capability. Full IPv6 routing and protocol implementation ensures today's networks are fully connectable, both internally and externally with other leading edge equipment. Powerful multicasting features support streaming video and voice traffic in modern converged networks.

High availability

When online connectivity is critical, the VPN Firewall has a bypass port to allow a link to another device as a passive backup. Automated failover immediately transmits Internet-bound traffic to the backup device, to maximize the availability of external connectivity, and ensure no loss of business productivity.

Easy to manage

The AR2050V runs the advanced AlliedWare Plus™ fully featured operating system, with an industry standard CLI. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides a dashboard for monitoring, showing traffic throughput, security status, and application use at a glance. Configuration of security zones, networks and hosts, and rules to limit and manage traffic, provides a consistent approach to policy management.

Full support for Allied Telesis Management Framework (AMF) allows the Allied Telesis VPN Firewall to integrate with Allied Telesis switching products, forming a network that can be managed as a single virtual entity. A full suite of automated tools ensures that the firewall is fully backed up and recoverable without user intervention, maximizing the availability of online services.

Allied Telesis Next-Generation Firewalls are an ideal integrated security platform for today's networks. Next-Generation Firewall and threat protection is combined with routing and switching, to provide an innovative high-performance solution.

The Allied Telesis Firewall is a next-generation, Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) engine that provides real-time, Layer 7 classification of network traffic. Rather than being limited to filtering packets based on protocols and ports, the firewall can determine the application associated with the packet. This allows Enterprises to differentiate business-critical from non-critical applications, and enforce security and acceptable use policies in ways that make sense for the business.

Allied Telesis integrated security platforms utilize "best of breed" security providers for the ultimate in up-to-the-minute protection from all known threats. Flexible licensing options make it easy to choose the right combination of security features to best meet business needs.

IDS/IPS is an intrusion detection and prevention system that can protect networks from malicious traffic. IDS/IPS monitors inbound and outbound traffic, and identifies threats which may not be detected by the firewall alone.

IP Reputation is becoming increasingly popular as a method of improving the success of Intrusion Prevention by reducing false positives. IP Reputation provides an extra variable to the prevention decision, which allows drop rules to be actioned only if the reputation of the web site exceeds a chosen threshold.

Allied Telesis Next-Generation Firewalls run the advanced AlliedWare Plus™ fully featured Operating System. The comprehensive Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides a single-pane-of-glass interface, with the dashboard providing at-a-glance status of threat detection and protection. The GUI centralizes management of the integrated components, to control and protect online business resources and applications.

Full support for Allied Telesis Management Framework™ (AMF) allows Allied Telesis Firewalls to integrate with Allied Telesis switching products to form a network able to be managed as a single virtual device. A full suite of automated tools ensures that the firewall configuration is backed up, and able to be recovered with no user intervention, maximizing availability of online services.

High performance is guaranteed by harnessing the power of multi-core processors and application acceleration engines. This dramatically increases throughput and enables simultaneous packet inspection.
