Firewall functionality extended for enhanced network security

HiSecOS 3.0 offers enhanced security features using the EAGLE20/30 firewalls, including Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and Firewall Learning Mode. The flexibility of the firewalls is said to allow a variety of configuration options, eliminating the need for multiple devices. It also offers cost and space savings. 

The EAGLE20/30 firewalls are multiport devices that combine added security features into a single, flexible solution. “With HiSecOS 3.0 users can customise firewall rules with just one click of a button using the Firewall Learning Mode. The single device solution is the only firewall that combines the level of security through DPI with the redundancy and flexibility of its customer-specified network interfaces,” said Vinod Rana, product manager at Hirschmann.

The EAGLE20/30 family suited to use by systems integrators, engineers and plant operators who may be looking for a one-device solution to secure their network, reduce network risks and maximise uptime.

The multiport firewall is built-to-order, with various configuration options for up to eight ports, including Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and symmetrical high-speed digital subscriber line (SHDSL).
