The Cisco ASA 5505 Firewall Edition Bundle (part number ASA5505-50-BUN-K9) is a comprehensive security appliance designed for small to medium-sized businesses. It offers robust protection against various online threats while providing essential networking features. This particular model supports up to 50 users, making it ideal for office environments with moderate network traffic requirements. The appliance helps secure Internet connections and prevents unauthorised access to internal networks.
One of the key features of the Cisco ASA 5505 Firewall is its stateful packet inspection (SPI) technology. SPI monitors data streams and only allows traffic deemed safe based on pre-configured security policies. Additionally, the firewall includes VPN support, which allows secure remote access for employees working from outside the office. It has the capacity to support up to 10 VPN tunnels, offering encrypted connections for remote users accessing a central server or network resources.
The ASA 5505 has an 8-port Ethernet switch, enabling easy integration into existing infrastructures without the need for additional gear or routing devices. It also supports VLANs (Virtual LANs), which allow the segmentation of network resources to improve performance and security by isolating internal traffic. The Cisco firewall furthermore offers intrusion detection/prevention (IDP) systems to protect against hacking attempts and malware.
With its scalable architecture, this device is also capable of expansion through additional software licenses, allowing the adaptation of security features as your business grows. The ASA 5505 Firewall Edition Bundle comes with all the necessary licenses to get started, including a comprehensive security suite for full protection across your network environment.
