The Alteon Switched Firewall 6614/6414, integrating Check Point Next Generation software and Secure XL acceleration technology, provides a total solution designed to ensure enterprise security without giving up the application performance that is critical - all while being easy to manage and simple to scale. With an architecture that separates the control engine from the data forwarding plane and offloads many firewall tasks to a special-purpose switch, network traffic is intercepted by the Firewall Accelerator and potential attacks are stopped before ever hitting the Check Point firewall. The Accelerator, running a special OS, is equipped with network processors ideally suited to support real-time deep-packet inspection and comprehensive Denial of Service (Dos) protection. The Firewall Accelerator and Director reflect the evolution of the unique architecture found in today's ASF portfolio, offering switch-based acceleration that takes advantage of the features and functionality derived from the high-performance Alteon Application Switch. The Switched Firewall Director performs policy checking for every connection request, manages the connection table, and specifies the rules for handling packets in a session. After a connection is established, the Switched Firewall Accelerator applies the firewall rules at wire speed to subsequent packets within an existing session. As a result, up to 90 percent of traffic is accelerated as these packets bypass the core firewall logic. This unique acceleration technology, found only on the Alteon Switched Firewall, makes it one of the leading high-performance firewalls on the market. Alteon Switched Firewall Accelerator 6600 features up to eight 10/100/1000TX ports, up to eight SFP GBICs, twelve concurrently active ports.| Product Description | Nortel Alteon Switched Firewall Accelerator 6600 - load balancing device | | Device Type | Load balancing device | | Enclosure Type | Rack-mountable - 1U | | Ports Qty | 8 | | Data Link Protocol | Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet | | Network / Transport Protocol | TCP/IP, UDP/IP, ICMP/IP | | Features | Flow control, switching, manageable |
