| Firewall | [ Top ] | | NetScreen-5 provides a secure firewall solution for protecting a single user or a small LAN from the outside world in a single dedicated hardware appliance. NetScreen-5‘s full-featured firewall uses technology based on stateful inspection. NetScreen‘s custom-built ASIC processes the firewall access policies and encryption algorithms in hardware, making it significantly higher performance than a software-only solution. The NetScreen-5 meets the performance needs of even the most demanding remote environments. |
|
| VPN | [ Top ] | | NetScreen-5‘s integrated VPN solution extends Intranet/Extranet security reach over public networks to remote and branch offices, providing consistent LAN-to-LAN security across the network. This is accomplished through the use of encryption of data transferred over the wide-area using the industry standard IPSec protocol. NetScreen‘s IPSec implementation is interoperable with other vendors that have implemented standards-based IPSec. |
|
| Traffic shaping | [ Top ] | | NetScreen-5‘s traffic shaping allows an administrator to monitor, analyze and allocate bandwidth utilized by various types of network traffic in real time. Applications and users can be prioritized using IP address or other criteria for providing different levels of service. |
|
| Easy installation and deployment | [ Top ] | | The NetScreen-5 features a simple, wizard driven interface for easy installation by non-security experts. For enterprises or service providers, the software installation application, QuickStart, can be used to configure one or multiple NetScreen-5 appliances concurrently. NetScreen also provides a web-based application and CLI that provides even greater flexibility in configuration. |
|
| Centralized management | [ Top ] | | The NetScreen-5 can be easily and securely managed individually through a web browser, CLI, or it can be managed centrally with NetScreen Global Manager. Global Manager is a key application for network managers responsible for multiple NetScreen appliances, as it provides for centralized concurrent configuration, monitoring, and management of up to 1,000 devices. |
