10/100 Switch / VPN Endpoint)

Linksys Router
|
|
If you are getting tired of paying a bunch of money
each year to some software company that promises to
keep your systems safe, perhaps you should consider
investing $80 to purchase this firewall router. This
is an excellent appliance that has three Ethernet
connections which are firewalled and one which is
referred to as a DMZ, which is not. Of course, if
you already own a Linksys access point or a Linksys
switch, then the whole setup will look really cool,
because you can stack them on top of each other as
they simply plug in. If you use one of the
router's Ethernet connections and put it into the
up-link of the switch, then all the computers
plugged into the switch are protected. This
appliance does exactly what it is supposed to, and
it does it very well. The management software comes
within the appliance and is accessed through a web
browser. Simply point the browser to the local IP
address of the router and you're in. Remote router
management is possible as well, but we discourage
you from turning this feature on.
If you are hosting a site on one of your PC's or
have PCAnywhere, or the like, running somewhere on
your network, you can access the routing table
within the router management software and forward
the ports to the local IP address of the specific
machine.
Overall, this appliance is very good and perform
exactly to specifications. |
