Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome

10/100 4-Port VPN Router

Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the 10/100 4-Port VPN Router. The Linksys 10/100 4-Port VPN Router is an advanced

Internet-sharing network solution for your small business needs.

Like any router, it lets multiple computers in

your office share an Internet connection.

But the unique dual Internet ports on the 10/100 4-Port VPN Router let

you connect a second Internet line as a backup to insure that you're never disconnected.

Or, use both Internet

ports at the same time, and let the router balance your office's requirements between them for maximum

bandwidth efficiency.

The 10/100 4-Port VPN Router also features a built-in 4-Port full-duplex 10/100 Ethernet switch to connect four

PCs directly, or you can connect more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need.

The Virtual Private Network (VPN) capability creates encrypted “tunnels” through the Internet, allowing up to 30

remote office or traveling users to securely connect into your office network from off-site.

Users connecting

through a VPN tunnel are attached to your company's network — with secure access to files, e-mail, and your

intranet — just as if they were in the building.

You can also use the VPN capability to allow users on your small

office network to securely connect out to a corporate network.

The 10/100 4-Port VPN Router can serve as a DHCP Server, and has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs

against intruders and most known Internet attacks.

It can be configured to filter internal users' access to the

Internet, and has IP address filtering so you can specify exactly who has access to your network.

Configuration is

a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.

This user guide will give you all the information you need to connect, set up, and configure your Router.

Ethernet:

a network protocol that specifies

how data is placed on and retrieved from a

common transmission medium.
