The Nokia IP440 delivers superior routing and firewall performance. |
Key Attributes
|
Overview The IP440 from Nokia is the industry's best-performing and most flexible itegrated router and firewall product. Ideally suited to provide secure Internet connectivity, the IP440 combines high-performance IP routing and bandwidth management with a complete implementation of the CHECK POINT FireWall-1 enterprise security suite. What was previously accomplished with a costly set of standalone devices can now be achieved with a single device, and at a price point that dramatically reduces the cost of Internet connectivity. |
Superior Performance Performance is increasingly important as firewalls are calle dupon to provide a broad scope of functionality, including data encryption, address translation and connection logging, Not all firewall architectures provide the same level of performance, however. The architecture of the IP440 delivers superior performance by leveraging the industry standard Intel platform in combination with optimized packet forwarding and Stateful Inspection, a firewall technology invented by CHECK POINT SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES. Independent performance testing by Keylabs Inc. has shown that the Nokia IP440 running FireWall-1 satisfies the requirements of even the most demanding networks. The IP440 supports hish data rates including Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, ATM, FDDI, T1/E1 and T3/E3 lines. Flexible Routing Platform At the heart of every Nokia IP440 is a 333 MHz, Intel Pentium II based system equipped with four PCI slots enabling network connectivity.

The Nokia IP440 also boasts a suite of bandwidth management controls for shaping Internet traffic to particular data rates. With this feature, the IP440 can allocate Internet bandwidth per IP subnet, host or application. This feature allows network managers to gain greater control over bandwidth comsumption across costly Internet links. The IP440 is manages using Network Voyager - Nokia's HTTP-based management application. With Network Voyager, the network manager can fully manage, monitor, and configure the IP440 from any authorized location within the network using a standard Web browser. Finally, the IP440 is housed in a rack-mountable, drawer-serviceabe chassis designed by Nokia to meet the demands of today's data centers. Complete CHECK POINT FireWall-1 Support The IP440 Combines this high-performance routing platform with a complete implementation of CHECK POINT'S FireWall-1 application suite - the market leading firewall application. While other networking vendors have partial security implementations, the Nokia IP440 is the only networking platform to support the complete FireWall-1 version 3.0 feature set. This feature set includes CHECK POINT'S award-winning FireWall-1 inspection module, integrated network address translation, authentication, encryption (enabling VPN support), and server load-balancing. The out-of-the-box integration of the FireWall-1 feature set with Nokia's routing software enables the IP440 to take on the role of both router and firewall. In the past, an Internet connection required two seperate components: a firewall (typically a gernal-purpose workstation) and a router. For many, this resulted in a considerable investment in hardware and the added overhead of having to manage two sperate devices. Nokia solves this problem by delivering an all-in-one device marrying best-of-breed VPN and firewall services. Futhermore, with built-in support for VRRP, the IP440 is also the first fully integrated router and firewall with support for hot-standby, load-sharing redundancy. Summary Internet connectivity is no longer a luxury - it is a necessity in corporate environments. However, connectivity alone will not surfice, as security is also critical when connecting to the Internet. As a result, more and more customers are looking to integrated router/firewall solutions rather than individual devices in order to better manage Internet connectivity. Nokia's IP440 meets this critical demand by offering robust routing, integrated industry-leading FireWall-1, advanced bandwidth management, and support for hot-standby, load-sharing redundancy - all at a price point that puts it in a class by itself. |
