SonicWALL Network Security Appliance (NSA) E5500 01-SSC-7008 Manuale Utente

Remote Site Protection
The E-Class NSA Series incorporates ultra-high performance Virtual 
Private Networks (VPNs) that easily scales to thousands of end 
points and branch offi

  ces. Innovative SonicWALL Clean VPN™ 

technology prevents vulnerabilities and malicious code by 
decontaminating traffi

  c before it enters the corporate network, 

in real time and without user intervention.

Gateway Protection
Easily integrated into existing environments, E-Class NSAs centralize 
gateway-level protection across all incoming and outgoing 
applications, fi les and content-based traffi

  c, while controlling 

bandwidth and applications, without signifi cantly impacting 
performance or scalability. 

Internal Protection
The highly-confi gurable E-Class NSA Series extends protection 
over the internal network by inspecting traffi

  c over LAN interfaces 

and VLANs. Specifi cally designed for LAN network threats, the 
E-Class NSA Series monitors and responds to internally spreading 
malware, denial of service attacks, exploited software vulnerabilities, 
confi dential documents, policy violations and network misuse.

Desktop and Server Protection
In addition to network and gateway based protection, the E-Class 
NSA Series provides additional end point protection for worksta-
tions and servers through an enforced anti-virus and anti-spy-
ware client with advanced heuristics. This enforced client 
solution delivers network access control by restricting Internet 
access on end points that do not have the latest signature or 
engine updates. When enforcement is enabled on the appliance, 
each end point is directed to download the enforced anti-virus 
and anti-spyware client without any administrator intervention, 

automating the deployment of end point security.  

Centralized Policy Management
The SonicWALL Global 
Management System (GMS) 
provides flexible, powerful 
and intuitive tools to centrally 
manage E-Class NSA confi gu-
rations across distributed 
enterprises, view real-time 
monitoring metrics and 
integrate policy and 
compliance reporting.
