Reference Manual for the Model FVS318 Broadband ProSafe VPN Firewall • Supports 8 VPN connections. • Supports industry standard VPN protocols The FVS318 VPN Firewall supports standard Manual or IKE keying methods, standard MD5 and SHA-1 authentication methods, and standard DES, 3DES, and AES encryption methods. It is compatible with many other VPN products. • Supports up to 256 bit AES encryption for maximum security. A Powerful, True Firewall Unlike simple Internet sharing NAT routers, the FVS318 is a true firewall, using stateful packet inspection to defend against hacker attacks. Its firewall features include: • Denial of Service (DoS) protection Automatically detects and thwarts Denial of Service (DoS) attacks such as Ping of Death, SYN Flood, LAND Attack and IP Spoofing. • Blocks unwanted traffic from the Internet to your LAN. • Blocks access from your LAN to Internet locations or services that you specify as off-limits. • Logs security incidents The FVS318 will log security events such as blocked incoming traffic, port scans, attacks, and administrator logins. You can configure the firewall to email the log to you at specified intervals. You can also configure the firewall to send immediate alert messages to your email address or email pager whenever a significant event occurs. Content Filtering With its content filtering feature, the FVS318 prevents objectionable content from reaching your PCs. The firewall allows you to control access to Internet content by screening for keywords within Web addresses. You can configure the firewall to log and report attempts to access objectionable Internet sites. Configurable Auto Uplink™ Ethernet Connection With its internal 8-port 10/100 switch, the FVS318 can connect to either a 10 Mbps standard Ethernet network or a 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet network. The 10/100 Mbps LAN and WAN interfaces are autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation. 2-2 Introduction M-10146-01
