Linksys RV042 Overview:
10/100 4-Port VPN Router
The Linksys 10/100 4-Port VPN Router is an advanced
Internet-sharing network solution for your small business
needs. Like any router, it lets multiple computers in
your office share an Internet connection. But the unique
dual Internet ports on the 10/100 4-Port VPN Router
let you connect a second Internet line as a backup to
insure that you're never disconnected. Or, use both
Internet ports at the same time, and let the router
balance your office's requirements between them for
maximum bandwidth efficiency. The 10/100 4-Port VPN
Router also features a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100
Ethernet switch to connect four PCs directly, or you
can connect more hubs and switches to create as big
a network as you need.
The Virtual Private Network (VPN) capability creates
encrypted "tunnels" through the Internet, allowing up
to 30 remote office or traveling users to securely connect
into your office network from off-site. Users connecting
through a VPN tunnel are attached to your company's
network -- with secure access to files, e-mail, and
your intranet -- just as if they were in the building.
You can also use the VPN capability to allow users on
your small office network to securely connect out to
a corporate network.
The 10/100 4-Port VPN Router can serve as a DHCP
Server, and has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your
PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks.
It can be configured to filter internal users' access
to the Internet, and has IP address filtering so you
can specify exactly who has access to your network.
Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration
utility.
As the heart of your small office network, the connection-redundant
Linksys 10/100 4-Port VPN Router gives you the connection
reliability your business needs.
