ViPNet Coordinator HW is a security gateway for protecting data transmitted through high-speed communication channels in data centers, LANs of company branches or small remote offices, remote workplaces, terminals. ViPNet Coordinator HW is equipped with a passive cooling system, consumes little power and requires no specific environment or operating conditions.
Use Cases
ViPNet Coordinator, in combination with other ViPNet Network Security products, implements many data protection options:
- Secure communication between offices of a company (site-to-site and multi site-to-site).
- Protected access to corporate network for remote and mobile users.
- Communication with ViPNet networks of other organizations.
- Wireless network protection.
- Data protection transmitted between data centers.
- Multiservice network protection (including IP telephony and videoconferencing).
- Differentiated data access in local networks, splitting local networks (for example, creating a DMZ).
- Secure, controlled user access to the Internet.
- Controlled user access from a public network to corporate resources and services.
Advantages
- As a VPN that does not require a secure connection, ViPNet ensures increased reliability and stability of connections through the ViPNet Coordinator HW security gateway.
- Support of modern, multiservice data networks and full compatibility with:
- DHCP, WINS, and DNS services.
- Dynamic address translation (NAT, PAT).
- Multimedia protocols (SIP, H323, SCCP, and others).
- ViPNet Administrator as the encryption key generation center.
- Special architecture of the ViPNet Coordinator HW file system prevents the operating system and ViPNet software image from becoming corrupted in the event of power failures.
- The possibility of increasing the reliability of the coordinator by deploying it as part of a failover cluster.
A server in a protected ViPNet network
- ViPNet network-layer (L3) VPN gateway: protects connections at the network layer (OSI) with encryption and authentication.
- ViPNet data-link-layer (L2) VPN gateway: protects connections at the data link layer (OSI) with encryption and authentication.
- IP address server: informing ViPNet hosts about their mutual access parameters.
- VPN packet router: routing and integrity check of encrypted IP packets sent between private network segments.
- Traffic masking due to its encapsulation to UDP or TCP.
Traffic filtering (firewall)
- A stateful firewall with application protocol inspection. Separate traffic filtering rules for unencrypted and encrypted IP traffic.
- NAT/PAT.
- Anti-spoofing.
- Secure Internet Access (secure connection of corporate computers to the Internet).
- Proxy server.
Network functions
- Static routing.
- Dynamic routing.
- WAN channel redundancy and balancing.
- VLAN (dot1q) support.
- Bonding, EtherChannel (LACP)
- Traffic classification and prioritization (QoS, ToS, DiffServ).
Services
- DNS server.
- NTP server.
- DHCP server.
- DHCP-Relay.
- UPS support.
- Hot standby cluster: Failover Coordinator in the ViPNet Failover configuration.
Configuration and Management
- Remote configuration of ViPNet Coordinator via ViPNet Administrator, Web Access, SSH.
- Remote update of the ViPNet Coordinator software via ViPNet Administrator.
- Local configuration via a COM console.
