Produktegenskaper

• Low latency, high throughput firewall
  Quantum QLS250 firewalls are equipped with one NVIDIA ConnectX network interface card (NIC), with 2x 100G QSFP28 ports. NVIDIA ConnectX NICs offload network processing from the host CPUs, providing substantial performance gains of up to 200 Gbps for trusted firewall traffic. In addition firewall latency is significantly reduced, to a low 3μSec at nearly line rate ensuring access to data and higher throughput with minimal delay.
• All-inclusive, resilient security
  Check Point QLS250 firewalls include the Check Point stateful inspection firewall and are also available in all-inclusive security packages such as NGFW (Application Control with IPS), NGTP (NGFW with URL filtering, antivirus and anti-bot) or SandBlast (NGTP with sandboxing and Threat Extraction, a Content Disarm & Reconstruction technology). In addition the QLS250 has redundancy built-in with two SSD drives in a RAID1 array and hot-swappable redundant power supplies, ensuring continuity when one unit fails.
• Maestro hyperscale lightspeed
  Check Point Maestro brings scale, agility and elasticity of the cloud on premise with efficient N+1 clustering based on Check Point HyperSync technology, maximizing the capabilities of Lightspeed firewalls. Create your own virtualized private-cloud premise by stacking multiple Check Point security gateways together. Group them by security feature set, policy or the assets they protect and further virtualize them with virtual systems technology. When a gateway is added to the system, it gets all the configurations, the policy, even the software version, updated and aligned with the existing deployment, and is ready to go within 6 minutes.
• Remote management and monitoring
  A Lights-Out-Management (LOM) card provides out-of-band remote management to remotely diagnose, start, restart and manage the appliance from a remote location. Also use LOM for remote installs of the GAiA OS.
• NVIDIA ConnectX
  The 4 single-width slots in the QLS250 supports one NVIDIA ConnectX dual-width network card, with 2x 100G QSFP28 ports, supporting an aggregate throughput of 200G of firewall throughput through the ConnectX. The dual-width card maximizes the PCIe bandwidth beyond a single slot limit. With the ConnectX in the QLS250, access to data and higher throughput with minimal delay is ensured for trusted traffic.
• Focused, parallel processing
  For advanced inspection such as IPS that requires pattern matching, connections are distributed to the multiple cores of the QLS250. In a nutshell this is how Check Point delivers a network security architecture that offers true threat prevention, not just threat detection. It does this without delay in one session, scales across multiple sessions, and is agile enough for deployment wherever you need security - on premises and in the cloud.
