Overview
Today's businesses require the robust security offered by a dedicated firewall
appliance for their growing networks. These same businesses also inevitably
require switching capabilities to connect multiple users and workgroups. Until
recently, these solutions had to be purchased as separate products, resulting in
higher costs and increased deployment and management complexity.
Now there's a solution that offers the security of a deep packet inspection
firewall and the convenience of workgroup switching in one appliance. The
SonicWALL PRO 1260 is a total security and switching platform designed for small
network applications. The PRO 1260 combines deep inspection firewall and IPSec
VPN capabilities with an intelligent, wire-speed, 24-port auto-sensing MDIX
switch in a single, convenient network security and LAN switching platform. This
unique appliance can be configured either as an unmanaged switch under SonicOS
Standard or as an intelligent managed LAN switching platform through the
powerful SonicWALL PortShield (PortShield) architecture enabled in SonicOS
Enhanced. The innovative PortShield architecture allows all 24 ports on the PRO
1260 to be independently and easily configured into custom security zones (PortShield
groups), each with its own "virtual firewall," along with granular rate limiting
on each interface. Virtual firewalling ensures the ports are secured not only
from the Internet, but also from other devices on the LAN. Additionally, SonicOS
Enhanced allows more sophisticated managed switching functions such as
port-level rate limiting, traffic monitoring and statistics, and configurability
for link duplex and speed.
For businesses with basic network requirements, the PRO 1260 running SonicOS
Standard integrates deep packet inspection capabilities with three independent
security zones: WAN, Optional port and 24-port LAN. The Optional port can either
be configured as a DMZ, providing the convenience of a scalable, all-in-one
solution at a low total-cost-of-ownership.
This highly integrated, rack-mountable security appliance ships in an
unrestricted node configuration and supports gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware,
intrusion prevention and content filtering, providing real-time protection
against viruses, spyware, worms, Trojans and other malicious threats. The PRO
1260 can be easily managed remotely as part of a multi-firewall and VPN
environment through a Web interface or using SonicWALL's industry-leading Global
Management System (GMS).
Key Features & Benefits
The SonicWALL PRO 1260 Enhanced and the PRO 1260 with optional SonicOS Enhanced
upgrade provide:
Unique SonicWALL PortShield Architecture. The PRO 1260 features the unique
SonicWALL PortShield architecture which provides the flexibility to configure
all 24 LAN switch ports into separate security zones (PortShield groups),
delivering protection not only from the WAN and DMZ, but also between devices
inside the LAN.
Real-Time Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion Prevention. The PRO
1260 extends security from the network core to the perimeter by integrating
support for SonicWALL's Gateway Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Intrusion
Prevention Service, delivering real-time protection against the latest blended
threats, including viruses, spyware, worms, Trojans, software vulnerabilities
and other malicious code.*
Integrated 24-Port auto-MDIX Switch. The PRO 1260 includes a managed 24-port,
wire-speed auto-MDIX switch that allows multiple home or office computers to
network together.
Deep Packet Inspection Firewall. The PRO 1260 features a configurable, high
performance deep packet inspection firewall for extended protection to key
Internet services such as Web, e-mail, file transfer, Windows services, and DNS.
Real-Time Blacklist Spam Filtering** The PRO 1260 provides the ability to use
DNS to query Real-Time Black List (RBL) services that track well-known spam and
open-relay SMTP servers, and to deny SMTP connections from servers that appear
on the lists.
Integrated Wireless LAN Services** In addition to being an integrated firewall
and VPN security appliance, the PRO 1260 functions as a secure wireless switch
and controller that automatically detects and configures SonicPoints, SonicWALL
wireless access points, as they are added to the network while simultaneously
enforcing security policies on all wired and wireless traffic.
ISP Failover** The PRO 1260 ensures continuous uptime for Internet and IPSec VPN
connectivity by failing over to a second ISP link should the primary link fail.
Through ISP Failover, the PRO 1260 delivers highly reliable network connectivity
for constant access to critical data.
WAN Redundancy and Load Balancing** The PRO 1260 offers the ability to configure
a secondary WAN port, delivering highly reliable network connectivity and robust
performance. This secondary WAN port can be used in "active-active" load sharing
or fail-over configuration providing a highly efficient method for maximizing
total network bandwidth.
Object-based Management** The PRO 1260 provides the ability to define an object
such as a user group, network address range, service or interface. When security
policies change, the administrator can modify the pre-defined object and
propagate the changes instantly without redefining rules, enabling businesses to
implement and manage security policies easily and consistently.
Configurable Optional Port** The PRO 1260 includes an optional port that can be
configured as a second LAN, a WLAN for distributed wireless, a second WAN for
ISP failover or a demilitarized zone (DMZ) for public-facing servers or Internet
resources.
Hardware AES Support. The PRO 1260 reflects SonicWALL's commitment to open
security standards by including hardware-based acceleration support for the 3DES
and AES encryption algorithms.
Comprehensive Central Management Support. Every SonicWALL Internet security
appliance can be managed using SonicWALL's award-winning Global Management
System, which provides network administrators with the tools for simplified
configuration, enforcement and management of global security policies, VPN, and
services, all from a central location.
