Today's businesses require the robust security offered by a dedicated firewall appliance for their growing networks!
These same businesses also inevitably require switching capabilities to connect multiple users and workgroups. Until recently, these solutions had to be purchased as separate products, resulting in higher costs and increased deployment and management complexity
Now there's a solution that offers the security of a deep packet inspection firewall and the convenience of workgroup switching in one appliance. The SonicWALL PRO 1260, part of SonicWALL's PRO Series, is a total security and switching platform for small businesses and branch offices
The PRO 1260 combines deep inspection firewall, IPSec VPN, gateway anti-virus, intrusion prevention, and content filtering capabilities with a wire-speed, 24-port auto-sensing MDIX Layer 2 switch in a single, convenient network security and LAN switching platform
This highly integrated, rack-mountable security appliance ships in an unrestricted node configuration and supports SonicWALL's portfolio of leading security services, providing the convenience of a scalable, all-in-one solution with a low total-cost-of-ownership. The PRO 1260 includes support for SonicWALL's Gateway Anti-Virus/Intrusion Prevention Service, providing real-time protection against viruses, worms, Trojans and other malicious threats
Also standard on every PRO 1260 is SonicOS Standard, SonicWALL's next-generation operating system, which features a streamlined Web GUI and comprehensive suite of easy-to-use configuration and management wizards that guides users through the configuration steps for common user network environments or scenarios, making it simple to set up in any network environment
The PRO 1260 can be easily managed remotely as part of a multi-firewall and VPN environment through a Web interface or using SonicWALL's industry-leading Global Management System (GMS)
This gives network administrators an economical yet powerful set of tools for rapid deployment, configuration, and management of global security policies from a central location |
