Network communications vendor Allied Telesis has launched new hardware to secure VPN connections. The modular AT-AR770S is a site-to-site (IPSec) VPN router offering a stateful packet inspection firewall and intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) protection.
The AT-AR770S is Allied Telesis’s first router to offer Gigabit LAN and WAN Ethernet connections, having two WAN combination ports offering small form factor optical fibre or copper gigabit connections, and four copper gigabit LAN ports. It uses an industry standard CLI and supports SNMPv3 for secure management.
The QoS used by the AT-AR770S can be applied within individual IPSec tunnels over GRE and in IPv6 to IPv4 tunnels and dynamically detects prioritised voice, video and application traffic maintaining optimal service levels even in congested networks.
Allied Telesis senior marketing VP Melvyn Wray, said, “The AR-770S is flexible and scalable enough to grow with a wide variety of network types and also enables NSPs to offer managed routing services”.
Allied Telesis said the device will cost around £1,200 + VAT, and be available in the next couple of weeks.
