Used Cisco: PIX 501 Firewall Solutions
|
The Cisco PIX 501 Firewall delivers enterprise-class security for small offices and teleworkers in a reliable, plug-and-play security appliance. Ideal for securing high-speed "always on" broadband environments, the Cisco PIX 501 Firewall, which is part of the market-leading Cisco PIX Firewall Series, provides robust security capabilities, small office networking features and powerful remote management capabilities in a compact, all-in-one solution. Enterprise-Class Security for Small Office EnvironmentsThe Cisco PIX 501 Firewall is a purpose-built security appliance that provides rich security services including stateful inspection firewalling, virtual private networking (VPN) and intrusion protection in a single device. Using the Cisco state-of-the-art Adaptive Security Algorithm (ASA) and PIX operating system, the PIX 501 ensures that all the users behind it are safe and secure from threats lurking on the Internet. Its powerful stateful inspection firewall technology keeps track of the state of authorized users' network requests and prevents unauthorized network access. By leveraging the flexible access control capabilities of the PIX 501, administrators can also enforce customized policies on network traffic traversing through the firewall. The Cisco PIX 501 Firewall can also secure all network communications from remote offices to corporate networks across the Internet using its standards-based Internet Key Exchange (IKE)/IP security (IPsec) VPN capabilities. By encrypting data with 56-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES) or optional advanced 168-bit Triple DES (3DES) encryption, prying eyes cannot see your sensitive corporate data as it safely travels across the Internet. The integrated intrusion protection capabilities of the PIX 501 can protect your network from many popular forms of attacks. Looking for over 55 different attack "signatures," PIX keeps a vigilant watch for attacks and optionally blocks them or notifies you of them in real time. By packing all the same security features found in the Cisco high-end gigabit PIX Firewalls, the PIX 501 provides the rich protection that all broadband users look for in an easy-to-use and easy-to-deploy solution. Simple, High-Speed Small Office NetworkingThe Cisco PIX 501 Firewall provides a convenient way for multiple computers to share a single broadband connection via its integrated, high-performance four-port 10/100-Mbps switch. Furthermore, Cisco PIX Firewalls provide Network Address Translation (NAT) and Port Address Translation (PAT) features to hide the actual network addresses of devices on your network. Users can also enjoy plug-and-play networking by taking advantage of the built-in Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server within PIX, which automatically assigns their computers network addresses when they are powered on. The Cisco PIX 501 Firewall provides the features necessary to seamlessly integrate into most broadband networking environments. Robust Remote Management CapabilitiesThe PIX 501 is a reliable, easy-to-maintain platform that provides a wide variety of methods for configuring, monitoring and troubleshooting it. PIX management solutions range from an integrated, Web-based management tool to centralized, policy-based management tools to support for remote monitoring protocols such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and syslog. PIX Device Manager (PDM) provides an intuitive, Web-based interface for administrators to easily configure and monitor a PIX 501, without requiring any software (other than a standard Web browser) to be installed on the administrator's computer. Administrators can also remotely configure, monitor and troubleshoot the PIX 501 using its command-line interface (CLI) through a variety of methods including Telnet, Secure Shell (SSH) and out-of-band access via the console port. A large number of PIX 501 Firewalls can also be easily remotely managed using Cisco Secure Policy Manager (CSPM) 3.0, available within the Cisco VPN/Security Management Solution (VMS). CSPM 3.0 is a scalable, next-generation centralized management solution for PIX Firewalls that includes features such as a task-based interface, interactive network topology map, policy wizards, policy import capabilities, and much more.
