Firewall SoftwareChoosing a Firewall Product from Deerfield.comDeerfield.com's product suite includes more than one firewall option: VisNetic Firewall and WinRoute Firewall. While they may overlap in function, they are designed with unique deployment scenarios in mind. VisNetic FirewallVisNetic Firewall for Workstations and Servers would best fit an organization that has:
VisNetic Firewall does not include NAT or routing functionality, and its sole purpose is to provide firewall and intrusion protection on workstations and servers. VisNetic Firewall also supports remote administration, port scan detection and SYN flood protection. For ServersVisNetic Firewall for Servers would most commonly be used to provide first-level firewall protection to Internet (and Intranet/Extranet) servers that are directly connected to the Internet with a public IP, or Internet servers sitting behind a router with minimal firewall characteristics. VisNetic Firewall could also be deployed as second-level protection for servers sitting behind another firewall, to provide added protection to the ports open on that particular machine. This allows administrators to define a basic firewall rule set for their corporate firewall, and then fine tune each connected server individually based upon its function (web, ftp, mail, etc.). For WorkstationsVisNetic Firewall for Workstations would most likely be deployed for mobile employees, connecting to the Internet on the road or telecommuting from home. Additionally, the workstation firewall can act as a secondary layer of firewall security for users sitting behind a corporate firewall, providing protection from both internal and external threats. WinRoute FirewallWinroute Firewall is a gateway firewall software application that features NAT, DHCP, DNS, Proxy, etc. This firewall solution also provides Internet sharing capabilities and VPN support (including MS VPN, and IPSec pass-through).WinRoute Firewall provides firewall and Internet sharing functions via a machine that acts as a gateway to the Internet (Intranet/Extranet), and features content filtering and integrated support for antivirus protection. Deploying These Firewall Solutions TogetherOrganizations may choose to deploy WinRoute Firewall at the gateway, and then further protect the workstations and port-directed servers sitting behind it with VisNetic Firewall.
