Many businesses have invested in faster Internet connections only to see network throughput bottlenecked because their firewall struggles to inspect traffic for the varied malicious threats commonly found in today’s computing environment. The results: poor network performance, barely adequate protection and overall frustration. It’s time to unchain your network!

TZ 210 Features & Benefits

The SonicWALL TZ 210 Series of network security appliances eliminates firewall performance bottlenecks while delivering unsurpassed Unified Threat Management (UTM) protection. Unlike other vendors’ solutions, the SonicWALL TZ 210 offers both protection and performance without compromise. The TZ 210 and TZ 210 Wireless-N deliver unmatched wire-speed throughput of up to 100 Mbps, dramatically improving network performance and allowing you to get the most out of your network investment. The improved performance enables SonicWALL’s patented Deep Packet Inspection technology to inspect and ruthlessly eliminate viruses, spyware, and other threats. The TZ 210 provides a full range of firewall capabilities in an easy-to-manage solution that can adapt to standalone or distributed configurations. Like more than a million other SonicWALL appliances protecting businesses around the world, each TZ 210 delivers reliable, cost-effective network protection and performance.

ICSA-Certified Stateful Packet Inspection Firewall

Industry-recognized standards for enterprise-class firewall protection, ensuring the integrity and validity of each connection, packet, source and destination

Comprehensive Security

Supports SonicWALL’s suite of security services including Gateway Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware, Intrusion Prevention Service, Enforced Client Anti-Virus, Content Filtering Service and Global Security Client.

SonicWALL PortShield

The SonicWALL PortShield architecture provides the flexibility to configure port level security for the LAN, providing protection not only from the WAN and DMZ, but also between devices inside the LAN.

Performance

High-performance Architecture

Utilizing the advanced processing technology found in the SonicWALL NSA Series, the TZ 210 delivers throughput speeds of up to 100 Mbps.

Wireless (802.11b/g/n)

Supports the 802.11n standard which is over five times faster than the current status quo of 802.11g.

Gigabit Interfaces

Includes 2 Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces and 5 Fast Ethernet interfaces to deliver bottleneck-free network performance.Includes 2 Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces and 5 Fast Ethernet interfaces to deliver bottleneck-free network performance.

Flexibility with Control

Wireless Guest Services

Create user accounts for occasional guest users such as consultants and contractors that permit wireless connections to the Internet without providing access to the corporate network.

Multiple Zones for Different User Types

Create multiple zones of access for different user types, providing an unprecedented level of control without compromising the security of the network.

Time-based and Group Policies

Create security policies that can be enforced according to pre-defined schedules. Specify start and end ranges on an individual or group policy basis, offering more granular network control. Create and assign security policies to a large number of users with minimal effort, simplifying User Level Authentication for Internet and VPN access.

Ease-Of-Use

Set-up and Management

An innovative Web interface utilizes a comprehensive suite of easy-to-use configuration and management wizards designed to guide you through the set-up of common network configurations (e.g., public server wizard, hub-and-spoke VPN wizard, NAT wizard).

Integrated auto-MDIX Ports

An 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.

Comprehensive Central Management Using SonicWALL GMS

SonicWALL’s award-winning Global Management System (GMS) provides network administrators with the tools for simplified configuration, enforcement and management of multiple global security policies, VPN and services for multiple system, all from a central location.

Business Continuity

Failover and Failback Technologies

Ensures continuous uptime for IPSec VPN tunnels by failing over to a wireless WAN connection should the broadband connection fail. Once the broadband is re-established, the TZ 210 fails back, providing the best connection speed possible.

WAN Redundancy and Load Balancing

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 failover configuration providing a highly-efficient method for maximizing total network bandwidth.

ISP Failover

Ensure 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 TZ 210 delivers highly reliable network connectivity for constant access to critical data.
