3Com® Firewall Server PCI Card with 10/100 LAN - 3CRFW300
3COM 3Com® Firewall Server PCI Card with 10/100 LAN 3CRFW300
The 3COM 3CRFW300 you're interested in is a: Embedded firewall hardware for a server PC; supports 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet LANs with UTP cabling.
Distributed Server Protection, Central Control The
3Com® Firewall Server PCI Card with 10/100 LAN works with the 3Com Embedded
Firewall Policy Server (sold separately), extending firewall filtering and
auditing capabilities across your enterprise. Now, IT managers can easily and
confidently protect shared servers, DMZ subnets, sensitive databases, e-commerce
Web servers. (Firewall configuration and management require the purchase of 3Com
Embedded Firewall Policy Server.)
This unique combination of firewall
hardware and management software delivers superior protection and flexibility
that software-only firewalls can't match. The critical advantage of our firewall
card over software-only products is tamper resistance. Built into each firewall
card is an onboard RISC processor that enforces security transparently to end
users, local applications, and operating systems. This embedded firewall
hardware is practically impervious to Internet attacks, end user actions, or
malicious code.
Equally important, each firewall card can be configured
and managed only through an authenticated 3Com Embedded Firewall Policy Server.
Even if a protected server is invaded, the firewall card prevents a corrupted
host from being used as a launching pad for further invasion into the
network.
When combined with our policy server, the 3Com Firewall Server
PCI Card lets you easily and cost-effectively deploy network security when and
where it's needed. You can distribute tamper-resistant security by installing
firewall cards on a scalable system-by-system basis. Then, use the policy server
to configure policies appropriate for the desired level of security and push
those policies across the network to the firewall cards.
The firewall
card plugs into a server PCI slot, replacing the conventional Ethernet or Fast
Ethernet LAN connection. In Windows XP or 2000 environments, TCP and security
tasks are offloaded to the card's security processor, helping boost system
performance.

Provides scalable, tamper-resistant protection for DMZ subnets, sensitive
databases, or shared servers—independent of routers or traffic streams
Secures open Internet connections, such as VPN end points and broadband
access gateways, located inside or outside the perimeter firewall
The policy server lets you configure security policies that filter traffic
at each machine, allowing only the communications needed for a system role or
function
The firewall card accepts instructions only from authenticated firewall
policy servers and enforces them transparently to host applications and end
users
Firewall cards can support multiple levels of protection—more relaxed for
internal servers and more restricted for shared and Internet-accessible
servers
To harden a server, the firewall card can be configured with security
policies that limit system-to-system communication—such as deny "ping" requests,
block unnecessary protocols and ports, and disable packet sniffing and IP
spoofing
For extra peace of mind, firewall cards can be configured to default to your
highest level of security if they cannot communicate with the policy
server
Fully 802.3-compliant, our firewall cards complement and enhance the
protection you're currently using—including perimeter firewalls, antivirus
scanners, VPNs, and intrusion-detection systems (IDSs)
Firewall cards can lower IT administration costs by adding 24/7 intrusion
resistance that helps eliminate false alarms generated by IDS monitoring
IPSec offloads include 3DES and DES encryption, SHA-1 and MD5 algorithms,
and RFC 2402 authentication
In addition to IPSec, cycle-intensive TCP segmentation, and TCP/IP checksum<
