Benefits

Increased Bandwidth, Scalability and Resilience
Dual WAN ports integrated into the BiGuard 30 for two broadband lines ensure optimal bandwidth sharing for multiple PCs in your office, or provide network redundancy in case one connection should fail. The load balancing feature is designed to provide the ability to balance the workload by distributing outgoing traffic across the two connections, and meet growing business needs requiring more bandwidth, network scalability and resilience for mission-critical or Internet-business applications. The auto failover feature can be configured for a second connection to assure redundant connectivity when the primary line fails.

Virtual Private Network Support
BiGuard 30 supports comprehensive and robust IPSec & PPTP VPN protocols for business users to establish private encrypted tunnels over the public Internet to ensure data transmission security among multiple sites, such as branch office or remote dial-up. The VPN feature supports up to 30 simultaneous IPSec VPN connections with performance up to 30 Mbps+ and 4 simultaneous PPTP VPN connections with performance up to 10 Mbps.

Rich Firewall Security to Protect Your Network
BiGuard 30 is an intelligent broadband sharing gateway with integrated firewall protection, while simultaneously offering features such as Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), Denial of Service (DoS) Prevention and Filtering. Built-in Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) determines if a data packet is allowed to pass through the firewall to the private LAN. It protects against hackers attack by Denial of Service to allow private LAN securely connected to the Internet. Furthermore, the firewall function provides e-mail alert service to notify you whenever attacks occur.

Traffic Prioritization and Bandwidth Management
The Quality of Service (QoS) feature helps users manage the bandwidth and prioritize the traffic of data effectively. It gives you full control over the traffic of any type of data. It ensures important data like customer information, or management information can move through the device at lightning speed, even under heavy load. You can control the transmission speed for inbound and outbound data passed through the router to ensure users do not saturate the bandwidth and browsing activities.
