This easy-to-deploy, model-upgradeable, VPN endpoint
and firewall security appliance was especially
designed for telecommuters with limited networking
experience, and offers best-in-class performance,
work/home network separation, and intuitive remote
management for network administrators in the central
office. Firebox® X5 is the all-in-one firewall/VPN
appliance that will handle all of your telecommuters'
security needs—now and in the future. Small-
to mid-sized businesses already protecting their
central office networks with Firebox X, can now
extend that commercial-grade security to their
remote and telecommuting employees with Firebox
X5.
The Firebox X Edge product family includes a
range of models to suit different business needs.
If you require more users, performance and capacity
than the Firebox X5 delivers, see the Firebox
X15. If you're looking for Firebox X5 capabilities
