Virtual Routers Using two or more, separate NetDefendOS routing tables, it
is possible to create separate virtual routers in a single
NetDefend Firewall. Although a single version of
NetDefendOS is being run, it is possible to create separate
sets of IP rules and other policies so that different sets of
traffic can be completely separated from each other within
a single NetDefend Firewall.
See Section 4.5, “Virtual Routing” for more information about
this topic.
IPv6 IPv6 addresses are supported on interfaces and within rule
sets. This feature is not enabled by default and must be
explicitly enables on an Ethernet interface.
More information about this topic can be found in
Section 3.2, “IPv6 Support”.
In addition to the list above, NetDefendOS includes a number of other features such as RADIUS
Accounting, DHCP services, protection against Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, support for PPPoE,
GRE, dynamic DNS services and much more.
