The Virtual Private Network (VPN) capability cre-
ates encrypted ""tunnels"" through the Internet, 
allowing up to 50 remote office or traveling 
users to securely connect into your office net-
work 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 16-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.  Con-
figuration is a snap with the web browser-
based configuration utility.
As the heart of your small office network, the 
connection-redundant Linksys 10/100 16-Port 
VPN Router gives you the connection reliability 
your business needs.
10/100 16-Port VPN Router
The Linksys 10/100 16-Port VPN Router is an advanced Inter-
net-sharing network solution for your small business needs.  
Like any router, it lets multiple computers in your office share 
an Internet connection, but the 16 ports on this Router fea-
ture unprecedented versatility.  Two are dedicated Internet 
ports that let you connect a second Internet line as a 
backup to ensure that you're never disconnected.  Or, you 
can use both Internet ports at the same time, and let the 
router balance your office's requirements between them for 
maximum bandwidth efficiency.
Not enough?  Up to five of the thirteen full-duplex switched 
10/100 Ethernet ports can be reconfigured as Internet ports, 
for an up to seven-port failover or load balanced redun-
dancy!  Finally, a dedicated DMZ port gives you a publicly 
accessible channel so you can set up a web or FTP server, 
unimpeded by the powerful security features of the Router.
