Protects your business

Deep Packet Inspection Engine - capable of configurable, high-performance scanning across all ports, including Web traffic, e-mail, file transfers, Windows services and DNS.
ICSA-Certified Stateful Packet Inspection Firewall (Pending) - ensuring industry-standard integrity and validity for each connection, packet, source and destination.
Comprehensive Security - including Comprehensive Anti-Spam Service, Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Intrusion and Prevention Service, Enforced Client Anti-Virus and Content Filtering Service (Premium Business Edition).
SonicWALL PortShield - provides the flexibility to configure port level security for the LAN, delivering protection not only from the WAN and DMZ, but also between devices inside the LAN.
Voice and Video over IP - offers high-performance standards-based security for voice (audio), streaming video and other latency-sensitive media over IP-based networks.

Protection that performs

High-performance Architecture - using advanced SonicWALL NSA technology, delivers throughput performance of 100 Mbps for Stateful Packet Inspection and up to 25 Mbps for UTM.
Wireless (802.11b/g/n) - supports 802.11n (up to 5X faster than status quo 802.11g) yet is still compatible with older wireless devices.

Delivers flexibility with control

Wireless Guest Services - permits wireless Internet connections for guest users such as consultants and contractors, without providing access to the corporate network.
Configurable Interfaces – are flexibly customizable as a second LAN, a second WAN, a WLAN, a DMZ or other network zone, using SonicWALL PortShield.
Multiple Zones for Different User Types - offers complete control without compromising network security.
Time-based and Group Policies - granularly enforceable by individual or group policy, pre-defined schedules, or start and end range, thus simplifying User Level Authentication for Internet and VPN access.
Virtual Private Networking (VPN) - offers SSL VPN and IPSec VPN for secure site-to-site and remote access, featuring gateway enforcement, centralized management and flexible configuration.

Easy to set up, and easy to use

Set-up and Management - is easily configured using a suite of wizards for common configurations such as public servers, VPNs and NAT.
Integrated 5-Port auto-MDIX Switch - automatically and transparently detects and corrects incorrectly wired cables such as cross-over cables, making network installation substantially simpler and less expensive.
SonicWALL Global Management System (GMS) - provides tools for simplified configuration, comprehensive enforcement and central management of multiple global security policies, VPNs and services for multiple systems.
Keeps your business continuous

Failover and Failback Technologies - ensures continuous uptime of IPSec VPN tunnels by failing over to a secondary WAN upon primary connection failure, automatically failing back when connection is re-established.
WAN Redundancy and Load Balancing – provides highly-efficient bandwidth maximization using a secondary WAN port in “active-active” load sharing or failover configuration.
ISP Failover – ensures highly reliable and continuous uptime for Internet and IPSec VPN connectivity by failing over to a second ISP link should the primary link fail.
