Security Access Router
The Cisco 1710 Security Access Router offers a cost-effective, business-class security
solution for small and medium-sized business and branch offices. The Cisco 1710
Router features comprehensive security with virtual private network (VPN), firewall,
and advanced routing functionality in an all-in-one device. The high-performance
VPN and firewall functionality safeguard e-business data traveling site-to-site over
the Internet and protect internal network resources from unauthorized access. The
Cisco 1710 Security Access Router is the ideal security access solution for today's
e-business needs.
To participate fully in the digital economy,
a growing number of businesses and branch
offices are accessing the Internet and
corporate networks using broadband
digital subscriber line (DSL) and cable
technologies. But these always-on Internet
connections can make businesses more
susceptible to intrusion and other Internet
attacks. In order to help companies
minimize these risks, the Cisco 1710
Security Access Router provides
comprehensive security and advanced
routing functionality when used in
conjunction with a broadband modem.
