Virtual Ethernet Cable
Reliably protect your transferred data.
Astaro RED acts like a remote network port connected through a virtual Ethernet cable to your Astaro Security Gateway. All data transferred is protected by strong encryption.
The Astaro RED device establishes a secure Layer 2 ("Ethernet") tunnel to the central Astaro Security Gateway using strong AES256 encryption and SHA1-HMAC authentication. Furthermore, all communication is automatically authenticated via an SSL channel by using trusted digital X.509 certificates before any data is being transferred.
As Astaro RED acts like an Ethernet cable all advantages of your LAN can be applied to your branch office. This includes central IP address management through DHCP and the usage of challenging protocols like multicast or netbios.
Hardware based AES encryption acceleration furthermore empowers each Astaro RED device to provide throughput rates of more than 30 Mbps, which exceeds the bandwidth available for typical small office WAN connections today and ensures low latency.
Astaro’s branch office security reliably protects your transferred data:
- AES256 encryption (hardware accelerated)
- SHA1-MAC authentication
- Mutual X.509 authentication via SSL channel for control protocol
- Transfers all Layer 2 protocols (Ethernet tunnel)
Available Platform
Branch Office Security can be implemented through installing Astaro Security Gateway (running software version 7.505 or higher) at your central office combined with Astaro RED devices locally deployed at your branch office locations.
