Multi-Tech Proxyserver Dual-Ethernet

Multi-Tech Proxyserver Dual-Ethernet ... midsize companies looking for cost-effective, dedicated Internet access and greater bandwidth. With the ProxyServer, you don’t need to be a networking expert to get up and running. Simply connect the corporate Ethernet LAN to one port, connect a cable or DSL modem to the other port, and configure your cable or DSL modem.

The ProxyServer uses NAT protocol to provide security from hackers attempting to access the office LAN without the extra cost of a firewall. It implements firewall and gateway security for LAN-based resources. Additionally, the ProxyServer supports Internet access restrictions by IP address, client protocols, or a list of forbidden sites. In addition to providing shared Internet access, the ProxyServer can support a web, ftp, or other Internet server. Once configured, the web server only accepts unsolicited IP packets addressed to the web or ftp server. For added LAN security, you can use the ProxyServer to segment the LAN. Connect the corporate servers to one ProxyServer Ethernet port and the Internet servers to the other Ethernet port. This configuration puts the corporate servers behind a firewall and the Internet servers outside the firewall. To provide shared Internet access to corporate LAN users, connect a DSU to the ProxyServer's serial port.
