GUARD-F1

Rugged Industrial Gigabit Firewall / Router

GUARD-F1

KEY FEATURES

  • Wide Input voltage range (8 - 36VDC)
  • 3 x 1GBit Ethernet ports, two can be used either as RJ45 or as SFP port
  • Supports SFP Modules which conform to the SFP Multi Source Agreement (MSA) according INF-8074
  • 100Base-FX or Gigabit Ethernet compatible (Single and Multimode)

OVERVIEW

The GUARD-F1 expands the MPL Networking product range with a rugged Industrial Gigabit Firewall and VPN Router. The GUARD-F1 comes with 3 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. Two of them are either available as copper or SFP ports and one is available as copper port. The specifically designed GUARD housing allows to operate the Firewall in harsh environments without the need of fans or ventilation holes and can easily be mounted on a 35mm DIN rail or wall. The compact housing offers sufficient space to add a MAGBES (Managed Gigabit Switch) or other peripherals. GUARD-F1 can be tailor made to your needs - even with IP67 housing and MIL connectors.

The GUARD-F1 Highlights

The operating temperature range is from -20°C to +60°C and optionally even -40°C to +85°C without fan or case openings. The capability to offer copper as well as SFP ports for various fiber optical solutions make the product universal. The internal miniPCIe slot allows various extensions (WLAN, GPRS...). Additional available: an external USB connector and a microSD Memory Card Slot for easy logging and/or configuration capabilities. The GUARD-F1 can be customized over an optional back-plane for additional interfaces; 2 SATA Ports, 3 USB Ports, 2 PCI express Ports.

The GUARD-F1 is the ideal solution for all rugged industrial and defense applications, where security, quality, reliability, low power consumption, and long-term availability are key. The GUARD-F1 can be used just to name a few; for remote monitoring and maintenance, secure communication in automation, etc..

Software
The GUARD-F1 comes preinstalled with an adapted version of OpenWRT ( http://www.openwrt.org). This Linux based embedded distribution provides all functionality required for operation as IPV4 and/or IPV6 firewall and router.
Most of the configuration of the firmware installed can be done using a web based interface. For more specialized requirements, a console based configuration utility is available. All configuration is stored on the device in a human friendly text format and can be modified using a text editor, too.Functions and protocols:

  • TCP/IP V4 and V6
  • Ipsec
  • QOS (Quality Of Service) capable
  • SIIT(IPV4-over-IPV6 translation)
  • Miredo/Teredo (IPV6 over IPV4 tunneling)
  • PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)
  • Network address translation
  • Multi WAN Setup (failover and load balancing)
  • DHCP Server for IPV4 and IPV6
  • DNS server/forwarder
  • Support for dynamic DNS providers
  • OpenVPN support
  • OpenConnect client support
  • Firewall based on linux iptables
  • SSH and telnet device access
  • Snort (lightweight intrusion detection)
  • Avahi (aka RendezVous/Bonjour/ZeroConf) support

Further functionality can be installed using a package repository that contains precompiled applications ready to install. A software development kit (SDK), allowing to implement customer specific applications, is available as well.

 

Internal GUARD-F1 Expansions Options
  • MAGBES-11
    4-port managable switch (4x RJ45)
  • MAGBES-12
    4-port managable switch (2x RJ45 plus 2x SFP Fiber Port)
  • Wall mounting instead of DIN-Rail
  • Heavy duty housings (MIL IP67) with MIL connectors
  • Extended temperature / coating
  • Customized versions and expansions
