Target Applications
Frame Relay and X.25 Encryption
Frame Relay and 
X.25 Networks
Another value-added feature in Vanguard Managed Solutions VPN implementation 
is the ability to encrypt LAN traffic and serial legacy protocols (SNA, SDLC, SLAC, 
and TBOP) and transport them over Frame Relay and X.25 networks. This is 
particularly useful in the financial industry where SNA traffic going out into the 
branches and ATM machines require a high level of security. This implementation 
also uses DES, Triple-DES (112-bit) for encryption and VanguardMS Proprietary 
SAM key exchange protocol to negotiate the keys.

Security Features 
The security features in Vanguard Applications Ware release 5.5 and greater also 
include Firewall functionality based on IP Packet Filtering. Access Control Lists can 
be configured based on a combination of source and destination addresses. IP 
Protocol, TCP/UDP source and destination port numbers/ranges, and interface 
numbers. A feature called Cypher Block Chaining prevents repeated patterns in 
Plaintext from appearing as repeated patterns in Cyphertext, thus making it harder 
for hackers to find traffic patterns.
