Description

• Next-generation firewall

  Tightly integrated with Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection to deliver intrusion prevention, malware protection, application intelligence, control and visualization, and inspection for SSL encrypted sessions. They scan every byte of every packet for the deepest level of protection and massively scale to extend state-of-the-art security to growing and distributed enterprise networks.

• Application intelligence

  SonicWall provides real-time insight and control of network traffic broken down by applications, users and content. The ability to prioritize important applications, throttle down unproductive applications and block unwanted application components ensures an efficient and safe network.

• Intrusion prevention

  Tightly integrated, signature based network intrusion prevention protects against a comprehensive array of network and application layer threats by scanning packet payloads for attacks and exploits targeting critical internal systems.

• Deep Packet Inspection for SSL encrypted traffic (DPI-SSL)

  DPI-SSL transparently decrypts, inspects and re-encrypts SSL encrypted traffic to allow security services to be applied to all traffic that traverses SonicWall Next-Generation Firewalls.

• SonicWall Mobile Connect

  SonicWall Mobile Connect, a single unified client app for Apple iOS and Google Android, provides smartphone and tablet users superior network-level access to corporate and academic resources over encrypted SSL VPN connections.

• High performance

  SonicWall's patented Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection engine combined with up to 32 processing cores ensures that the 9000 Series is capable of inspecting over one million connections simultaneously across all ports. With nearly zero latency and without file size limitations, the system provides more than 10 Gbps of full deep packet inspection throughput across 4 x 10-GbE SFP+, 8 x 1-GbE SFP, 8 x 1-GbE interfaces. Designed with power, space and cooling (PSC) in mind, SuperMassive provides the leading Gbps/Watt in the industry.

• Deep packet inspection firewall

  SonicWall Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection technology scans against multiple application types and protocols to protect against internal and external threats at both the application layer and the network layer.

• Virtual private networking

  High-performance Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) easily scale to thousands of end points and branch offices. And SonicWall Clean VPN technology protects the integrity of both your IPSec and SSL VPN traffic, securing your remote access tunnels and decontaminating the traffic running over it.

• SSL VPN remote access

  Integrated SSL VPN technology enables clientless, remote access to email, files, intranets, and applications from a variety of tablet, phone and PC platforms. The SSL VPN client can also be automatically pushed out to the client and auto-configured to provide secure layer 3 connectivity.

• Intuitive management

  Powerful set-up wizards make it easy to quickly set up VPN Tunnels, policies and network rules, which can then be fine-tuned through an intuitive Web interface. All application and signature updates are obtained automatically by the firewall and are effective immediately without reboots or downtime.

• Powerful reporting

  Historical reporting on user activity is available through SonicWall Analyzer software and real-time application analysis through powerful visualization tools.

• Advanced clustering

  Select firewall models support a number of advanced deployment scenarios for increased throughput and redundancy beyond the common active/passive and active/active two unit deployments. Active/Active clustering deployments allow for assembly of stateful HA pair, stateless-HA pairs and single-unit "nodes" within the cluster. A Cluster can consist of up to 4 nodes, each node containing one or two units, for distribution of flows across all nodes with linear performance scaling.

• WAN acceleration

  Add a SonicWall WAN Acceleration Appliance (WXA) to a SonicWall firewall to significantly enhance WAN application performance. This integrated solution simplifies deployment, configuration, routing and management by uniquely synergizing network security with network optimization.

• Intrusion prevention

  Tightly integrated, signature based network intrusion prevention protects against a comprehensive array of network and application layer threats by scanning packet payloads for attacks and exploits targeting critical internal systems.

• URL filtering

  SonicWall content filtering service blocks multiple categories of objectionable Web content and provides the ideal combination of control and flexibility to ensure the highest levels of productivity and protection.
