5 VPN Tunnels for Secure Remote Access
The NETGEAR® ProSafe 8-port Gigabit VPN Firewall provides both secure IPsec site-to-site tunnels and IPsec secure access for remote clients. Employing a true firewall with customizable firewall rules, this VPN router is a high-performance, SNMP-manageable, network solution that furnishes multidimensional security including denial-of-service (DoS) protection, stateful packet inspection (SPI), URL keyword filtering, logging, reporting, and real-time alerts. Eight Gigabit LAN ports keep your data moving at top speed. With Network Address Translation (NAT) routing and classical routing, all the users in your small office can access your broadband connection at the same time.

Secure
The FVS318G takes care of all your security needs, with support of up to 5 simultaneous IPsec VPN tunnels, hacker protection via SPI firewall, DoS attack protection, configurable hardware DMZ port, and multiple VPN pass-through. It features SYSLOG, email reporting, and integrates with network monitoring tools via SNMP. IKE authentication provides peace of mind against unauthorised VPN network access and supports industry-strength encryption algorithms to ensure protection and privacy of your sensitive data. Dedicated DMZ enables you to separate guest traffic from production data. The ProSafe 8-port Gigabit VPN Firewall provides optimal value and defence against network security threats.

Reliable
At the core of the FVS318G is NETGEAR-tested and proven firewall and VPN technology. The rugged metal unit houses advanced, high-quality electronics, and is backed by a lifetime warranty.

Easy to Use
Auto Detect connects to your ISP quickly; the user-friendly Web-based ProSafe Control Center configuration screen and install assistant reduce setup time. The IPsec VPN wizard automates IPsec VPN configuration and secure remote makes it simple to connect to multiple sites. Support for DHCP (client and server) as well as PPPoE allows for easy, widespread deployment. This well-built firewall has an integrated 8-port 10/100/1000 Mbps switch and is compatible with Windows®, UNIX®, Macintosh®, and Linux® OS. Auto Uplink on the all ports eliminates the need for crossover cables.
