Genuine Original Cisco Firewall Internet Security Appliance PIX-520 47-4827-01 REV A0. PIX (Private Internet Exchange) Firewall provides full firewall protection that completely conceals the architecture of an internal network from the outside world. PIX Firewall allows secure access to the Internet from within existing private networks and the ability to expand and reconfigure TCP/IP networks without being concerned about a shortage of IP addresses. With PIX Firewall, users can take advantage of larger address classes than they may have been assigned by the Internet's Network Information Center (NIC). The four-port Ethernet circuit board provides four 10/100 Ethernet connections and has autosense capability. Connectors on the four-port Ethernet circuit board are numbered top to bottom sequentially; however, the actual device number depends on the slot in which the four-port Ethernet circuit board is installed.

This unit includes 5 Module Cards:
4 x  Single-Port Interface Ethernet Circuit Board;
1 x  Failover & Console Connector Board.

Model Number: CISCO PIX-520
Part Number: 47-4827-01 REV A0

Features:
• Firewall capability that keeps intruders out of your internal network while permitting regulated conduit access through the firewall for services such as electronic mail, Telnet, FTP, SNMP, and HTTP (World Wide Web) use.
• Network translation services that let a site share one or more NIC-registered IP addresses among many users.
• An Identity feature that lets NIC-registered IP addresses pass through the firewall without address translation, while still retaining Adaptive Security.
• The PIX Firewall offers performance dramatically better than competing firewalls. It gains speed through a patent pending process called Cut-Through proxies, which is the fastest way for a firewall to authenticate a user. Unlike a proxy server that must analyze every packet at layer seven of the OSI model, a time- and processing-intensive function, the PIX Firewall first queries a TACACS+ or RADIUS server for authentication. Once approved, the PIX Firewall then establishes a data flow and all traffic thereafter flows directly and quickly between the two parties. This Cut-Through capability allows the PIX Firewall to perform dramatically faster than proxy-based servers while maintaining session state.
• An IOS-like command set for simplified configuration and administration.
• Support for SNMP MIB-II gets and traps.
• Simplified configuration and system management with an HTML interface.
• Support for Telnet, FTP, and HTTP access using RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) and TACACS+ security systems. PIX Firewall authenticates users in conjunction with the security systems that Cisco routers support. The security clients run on Cisco routers and send authentication requests to a central security server, which contains all user authentication and network service access information.
• For domestic sites, the Private Link encryption option that permits up to 64 PIX Firewall units to interact together across a WAN with completely secure data transfer. From the internal networks, the other networks connected through Private Link appear as one contiguous network. Private Link supports IETF IPSEC AH/ESP with DES.
• Failover capability that permits a secondary PIX Firewall unit to take over firewall communications if the primary unit fails.
• Support for 10BaseT and 100BaseTX networking.
• Support for Token-Ring network cards that can be operated singly so that Ethernet networking transforms into Token-Ring or in pairs for a standard Token-Ring network.
