Edge2WAN
SMB WAN Load Balancers
Dual-WAN Firewall Solution
The Edge2WAN platform is the first traffic shaping firewall with the ability to provide faster downloads and a more reliable Internet connection by load balancing inexpensive broadband (DSL, cable, wireless) connections.
Firewall appliances that include a rich link load balancing feature set designed to provide greater performance and reliability. With it's advance Vector Routing Algorithm and the ability to create flexible NAT rules, the Edge2WAN solution is clearly the winner in the dual-WAN firewall market.
Comprehensive Security Solution
The Edge2WAN includes a comprehensive security feature set which leverages its multi-link load balancing capabilities to deliver more bandwidth via multiple broadband connections from two or more ISPs. Some of the many security features delivered by the Edge2WAN appliance include:
- Application Layer Packet Inspection
- Netsweeper Web Content Filtering
- DoS/DDoS Network Protection
- SourceFire IDS w/Blocking
- SourceFire Anti-Virus Protection
- and more
VPN Load Balancing / Failover
The Edge2WAN product family also has the ability to combine site-to-site SSL-based VPN tunnels to improve performance and ensure automated tunnel failover in the event of a network outage. Highly secure 3DES encryption is bundled with tunnel balancing to improve remote site
performance. These site-to-site tunnels deliver up to 99.999% reliability in the event of a network failure and best in class ROI.
ActiveDNS
Few firewall solutions offer the inbound network load balancing features found in the Edge2WAN product line. Our ActiveDNS has applied patent technology which allows the Edge2WAN unit to easily load balance inbound server traffic for thousands of domains and up to 10000 A records per domain. No other link load balancing firewall product on the market can match our price v performance.
Application Routing
With application routing network administrators can determine how they want critical application traffic routed, i.e. VoIP, Citrix traffic over the primary link and web, email traffic over a secondary link. Administrators can also choose to weight traffic on a per link basis to perfer one ISP connection over the other based on SLAs provided by our Best Path Routing technology.
