Excellence in Integrated Security Appliance

Product: TippingPoint X505
Family: TippingPoint X505

Product Description: The TippingPoint X505 is the first integrated security platform based on the award-winning TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System architecture with the extended functionality of virtual private network (VPN) and firewall, bandwidth management, quality of service and Web content filtering.

One of the most compelling attributes of the X505 is that all of its functionalities are wholly interoperable. For example, IPS and traffic shaping can be applied within an IPSec VPN tunnel - effectively preventing the propagation of worms between enterprise branch locations, while simultaneously prioritizing site-to-site VoIP phone calls for enhanced VoIP quality.

Performance:

IPS aggregate throughput: 50 Mbps

128,000 connections per second

Firewall aggregate throughput: 100 Mbps

IPSec VPN (3DES/AES-256): 50 Mbps

Interfaces: 4 x 10/100 data; 1 x 10/100 management; 1 x RS232/DB9 console; 1 x USB (future); 1 x IEC AC power input.

Key Features:

  • Proactive Network Security - Leverages the same award-winning IPS engine and Digital Vaccine service used to protect thousands of enterprise-class networks throughout the world. The X505 delivers uncompromised security to eradicate attacks such as worms, viruses, Trojans, blended threats, DoS attacks, and a range of other threats.
  • Maximize Business-Critical Applications - Prioritizes real-time business-critical applications, including video conferencing, IP telephony and interactive distance-learning. Its innovative tunneling approach secures current and next generation multicast conferencing applications as well as other business critical applications. The TippingPoint X505 can prioritize both inbound and outbound application traffic as well as inside and outside IPSec VPN tunnels.
  • Enforce Acceptable Usage Policies with Content Filtering - Blocks or rates limit non-mission critical applications, and enforce acceptable Web-usage policies that improve productivity and reduce wasted bandwidth. The Web site filter database is a co-located geographically balanced hosted server, which is accessed in real time via the X505, eliminating the need to download an ever increasing database of unacceptable URLs.
  • Digital Vaccine(R): Constant Peace of Mind - Annual subscription service that ensures the TippingPoint X505 is constantly updated against the latest threats against worms, viruses, Trojans, Denial of Service attacks, VoIP threats, Spyware and Phishing.

Highlights: The TippingPoint X505 is the first integrated security platform based on the award-winning TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System architecture with the extended functionality of virtual private network (VPN) and firewall, bandwidth management, quality of service and Web content filtering.

End-Users: The TippingPoint X505 is specifically aimed at addressing the needs of the extended enterprise, regional branch office or medium-sized business.
