Comprehensive Management Capabilities
The DSR-500 and 1000AC VPN Routers include dual WAN Gigabit Ethernet ports to provide high availability for your WAN or Internet connections. Traffic can be load-balanced across links with Outbound Load Balancing, increasing the performance and availability of business applications. The secondary WAN port can also be used to create a DMZ, isolating servers from your LAN.
Web Authentication Capabilities
Captive Portal allows employees and guest users to be easily authenticated and authorized by accessing a customized landing page. Users can be authenticated by a local database, RADIUS, LDAP, Microsoft Windows Active Directory and POP3 server. A maximum of four servers can be configured at any one time.
Complete and Robust VPN Features
A fully featured virtual private network (VPN) provides your mobile workers and branch offices with a secure link to your network. The DSR series routers are capable of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN tunnels, as well as Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels, empowering your mobile users by providing remote access to a central corporate database. Site-to-site VPN tunnels use IP Security (IPSec) Protocol, Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), or Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) to facilitate branch office connectivity through encrypted virtual links. OpenVPN allows mobile users to connect to the corporate intranet via encrypted links with their PC, laptops, or mobile devices.
Static and Dynamic Web Content Filtering
The DSR series also provides a web content filtering feature to help administrators monitor, manage, and control employee Internet usage. Static web content filtering helps to remove malicious objects such as Java applets, ActiveX, and cookies, or to block URLs by keyword. Dynamic Web Content Filtering, which requires a license subscription, allows administrators to filter content from a list of categories. Multiple global index servers, with millions of URLs and real-time website data, enhance performance and maximize service availability. Dynamic Web Content Filtering trial period is free for the first three months.
