Editorial Reviews:
Product Description The revolutionary 3Com Security Switch 6200 delivers a score of security services for a fraction of the cost of purchasing these disparate capabilities separately. Ideal for large enterprise deployments, such as regional- or head-office networks and data centers, it supports a wide range of robust, third-party security applications. Without compromising protection, performance, or availability, this integrated security services switch platform delivers significant savings over multiple-appliance, load-balanced solutions.With this new class of enterprise security solution, firewalls, VPNs, content and spam filters, antivirus scanners, IDS, and intrusion prevention systems (IPS), and more can be seamlessly consolidated onto one centrally managed, load-balanced, high-capacity platform. IT managers can purchase only those capabilities needed to defend against specific vulnerabilities or deploy multiple layers of security to safeguard against today's sophisticated, blended threats.Its unique, two-stage architecture combines an embedded network processor and flow-management and acceleration software - enabling the switch to simultaneously process multiple traffic streams and security services. It also includes built-in redundancy features that help ensure 24/7 availability and reliability.
