* Five Stage Firewall – Net Winder uses advanced five-stage network packet processing (pre-routing, input, forward, output and post-routing) to protect networks from intrusion.

* Access The Network from Anywhere in the World – RebelConnect, the server-to-server VPN supports the industry standard IPSec protocol and securely connects branch offices together. RebelRemote gives laptop or home users access to their corporate LAN through the secure client-to-server VPN tunnel. This VPN connection allows secure remote access to network resources such as e-mail and network file shares while out of the office.

* Three Fully Configurable High-Speed Network Interfaces – Three 100Base-T network interface ports allow users to connect their internal and external networks, while still leaving a third high-speed interface for other uses, such as connecting to a Network Attached Storage device for added file storage space, or connecting to a separate secure (DMZ) network.

* Easy Quick Start Set-up – The Quick Start CD walks users through connecting the cables and configuring the system from their favorite web browser. The automatic network discovery routine examines the gang bang squad and suggests appropriate network settings for the NetWinder.
