| By placing a firewall between your local network (LAN/WLAN) and the Internet, you can make it very hard for hackers and other sinister people roaming the internet, to gain access to your local network. That is, if you have configured your firewall correctly. This can be especially important for businesses and people with sensitive information on their computer systems. A very neat function most hardware firewalls have is the ability to securely connect the local area network to other local area networks in different locations over the Internet, thus creating a Virtual Private Network (VPN). With VPN you can safely share network resources with remote offices or play games with your friends as if you were on the same LAN! |

and flexible, scalable configurability.
The SonicWALL PRO 3060, part of SonicWALL's PRO Series Internet Security Platform, delivers complete business continuity for even the most complex networks. Powered by SonicWALL's next-generation SonicOS operating system and powerful deep packet inspection architecture, the PRO 3060 provides integrated gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention and anti-spam capabilities for real-time protection against today's dynamic threats. Enterprise-class firewall throughput and VPN concentration, coupled with unbeatable price/performance characteristics, make the PRO 3060 the ideal solution for companies that need rock solid network protection and fast, secure VPN access for remote employees at a cost-effective price point.
Available as an optional upgrade for the PRO 3060, SonicOS Enhanced provides Hardware Failover, WAN ISP Failover and an automated secondary VPN gateway, ensuring continuous network uptime. Six fully configurable 10/100 Ethernet interfaces allow administrators to create multiple LANs, WANs, DMZs and custom-defined zones. The PRO 3060 also features an innovative Web interface, making it the ultimate choice for robust internal and external security, network configuration flexibility and ease of use.
SonicOS Standard, which ships on every SonicWALL PRO 3060, provides:
Real-Time Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and
Intrusion Prevention. The PRO 3060 extends security from the network core to the perimeter by integrating support for SonicWALL's Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention Service, delivering real-time protection against the latest blended threats, including viruses, spyware, worms, Trojans, software vulnerabilities and other malicious code.
Powerful Content Filtering. The PRO 3060 supports SonicWALL's Content Filtering Service, providing an enterprise- class, scalable content filtering service that enhances productivity and security without requiring additional server or deployment costs.
Deep Packet Inspection Firewall. The PRO 3060 features a configurable, high performance deep packet inspection firewall for extended protection to key Internet services such as Web, e-mail, file transfer, Windows services, and DNS.
Hardware Encryption Support. The PRO 3060 reflects SonicWALL's commitment to open security standards by including hardware-based acceleration support for the 3DES and AES encryption algorithms.
Dynamic DNS. The SonicWALL PRO 3060 includes Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) support, which drastically reduces the costs associated with hosting e-mail servers, Web servers and site-to-site VPN by allowing the use of dynamic IP addresses.
Comprehensive Central Management Support. Every SonicWALL Internet security appliance can be managed using SonicWALL's award-winning Global Management System, which provides network administrators with the tools for simplified configuration, enforcement and management of global security policies, VPN, and services, all from a central location.
SonicOS Enhanced, an optional software upgrade for the SonicWALL PRO 3060, adds:
Real-Time Blacklist Spam Filtering. The PRO 3060
provides the ability to use DNS to query Real-Time Black List (RBL) services that track well-known spam and open-relay SMTP servers, and to deny SMTP connections from servers that appear on the lists.
Additional Configurable Interfaces. SonicOS Enhanced activates three additional user-assigned ports on the PRO 3060 that can be configured either as additional LANs, WANs or DMZs, or as a Hardware Failover port, offering greater network configuration flexibility.
Integrated Wireless LAN Services. In addition to being an integrated firewall and VPN security appliance, the PRO 3060 functions as a secure wireless switch and controller that automatically detects and configures SonicPoints, SonicWALL wireless access points, as they are added to the network while simultaneously enforcing security policies on all wired and wireless traffic.
WAN ISP Failover and Load Balancing. The PRO 3060 offers the ability to designate one of the user-assigned ports as a secondary WAN port that can be used in "active-passive" failover configuration, providing a highly efficient method for distributing or load sharing outbound WAN traffic.
Object/Policy-based Management. The PRO 3060 provides the ability to define an object such as a user group, network, service or interface. When security policies change, the administrator can modify the pre-defined object and propagate the changes instantly without redefining rules. This enables businesses to implement and manage security policies easily and consistently.
Policy-based NAT. In addition to NAT (many-to-one) functionality, the PRO 3060 exposes control of NAT policies to administrators for one-to-one NAT, many-to-many NAT, one- to-many NAT, inbound Port Address Translation (PAT), flexible NAT (for overlapping IP addresses), as well as NAT policies on selective source/destination/source translations. The result is greater control and flexibility to support and manage various NAT requirements.
Multiple Interfaces per Security Zone. Network administrators can group multiple physical interfaces on the PRO 3060 into logical "zones" for ease of management and flexibility. This provides tremendous flexibility, scalability and added internal security when deploying SonicWALL firewalls in various network topologies.
