Net Integrator Model I Features
Features
NetIntelligence automatic network
discovery and auto setup
This unique system, developed by Net
Integration Technologies, allows Net Integrator to
intelligently discover the network world around it and
configure itself automatically. For the ultimate in
plug-and-play, connect Net Integrator to the internal LAN
and to the Internet. Net Integrator assigns itself IP
addresses, discovers if DHCP needs to be enabled or
disabled, then auto-configures the firewall, and displays
its IP address on the front panel. Next, the administrator
simply connects to WebConfig at this IP address through a
web browser and begins setting up user accounts. It is that
easy. The system is then operational and ready for use.
WebConfig operates over SSL for heightened security.
SystemER - 2 minute disaster recovery
system
SystemER (Emergency Recovery) is an
innovative recovery system unique to Net Integrator, which
enables fast and easy recovery from any catastrophic system
failures in just 2 minutes. It sounds unbelievable, but no
matter what happens, from system failures due to total hard
disk failure to motherboard or CPU failures, your Net
Integrator will be up and running and fully operational in
just 2 minutes.
Available One-Touch Integrated Tape
Backup System
Net Integrator Mark I is the only network
server appliance in its class with an integrated backup
system. Backups are simple: insert a new tape and press the
backup button the on the unit's LCD control panel. Restoring
data is also simple: just insert the proper tape and press
the restore button.
idb Intelligent Disk Backup System with
Continuous Backup ( Mark I idb model)
Net Integrator Mark I is the only network
server appliance in its class that includes idb: Intelligent
Disk Backup. Featuring continuous backup as often as every
15 minutes and automatic backup management, backup and
recovery is reliable and easy.
Advanced journaling file system
The journaling file system is faster and
much more robust than standard file systems. Featuring
superior crash resistance, the journaling system also offers
incredibly fast re-mounting of the file system after
improper shutdown, as in the case of power failure. After
such an occurrence the entire file system will re-mount in a
matter of seconds, compared to several hours, as is the case
with standard file systems.
High performance cross-platform file
services for Windows and Macintosh clients
Make no mistake, this is not another low
cost, underpowered server. In industry standard file server
tests, Net Integrator Mark I performed 700% to 900% faster
than competitors in its class.
WWW Services
The integrated Apache web server offers
exceptional speed and capacity. Virtual servers, CGI
scripts, Perl 5.0, PHP and SSL are also supported. Net
Integrator is also equipped with an auto-configuring WWW
proxy cache server that significantly improves
client-browsing response, while maximizing Internet
bandwidth utilization.
Email services
The advanced email server provides POP3 and
IMAP mailboxes for users. The Net Integrator email system
supports mail forwarding, vacation auto reply and automatic
email retrieval using IMAP or POP3 over SSL. The WebMail
capability allows users to securely read and write their
emails, with access to their calendars and address books,
using any Internet browser from anywhere on the Internet.
The Realtime Blackhole List (RBL) is a unique SPAM-blocker
that filters out unwanted emails, and the optional
VirusProtect software module provides comprehensive
security.
FTP server
The integrated high performance FTP server
offers an easy way to provide high volume file downloads.
Firewall
The state-of-the-art autoconfiguring
firewall requires no setup and offers protection from
hackers and other intruders. The firewall executes stateful
inspections of all incoming IP packets and performs network
and port address translation thereby hiding the internal
network from the Internet. The advanced FastForward proxy
service offers simple and safe access to protected servers
behind the firewall.
MySQL server
The integrated MySQL database server
provides a database management system with superior speed,
compactness and stability. It's easily accessible through a
web-based interface. Net Integrator provides automatic
configuration, backup and recovery, which simplifies set-up,
administration and maintenance.
TunnelVision VPN
Employing the Internet as a connection
medium, the TunnelVision Virtual Private Network solution
delivers a safe and easy way to connect offices to each
other. Data is secured in transit using the 128 bit Blowfish
encryption algorithm or using standard IPsec.
Remote Access Services (RAS)
Using Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP),
users can securely connect to their network from anywhere on
the Internet. PPTP support is built into all Microsoft
Windows clients and third party PPTP is available for
Macintosh clients.
Non-volatile solid state disk for
operating system
Providing the
ultimate in reliability and crash recovery, the operating
system and configuration files are stored on a nonvolatile
solid-state disk. Incredibly, during any hard disk failure,
the system continues to operate as a LAN-to-Internet and
firewall device without interruption. System recovery is
simply a matter of installing a new hard disk and initiating
the recovery sequence. The system automatically restores
itself to normal operating state.
DoubleVision high reliability Internet
connectivity
Unique to Net Integrator, DoubleVision
enables any combination of two separate Internet links from
two separate Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to be
connected to one Net Integrator. With this feature, Internet
access bandwidth is doubled, DDNS ensures load sharing of
incoming Internet traffic, and if one ISP's connection
experiences problems or goes down, Internet access is
unaffected.
Remote User Management Tools
For more powerful remote desktop management,
Net Integrator presents a new screen from the main menu that
displays a list of current active users, and offers remote
access to their workstations.
Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
Unique to Net Integrator as a bundled
service, DDNS eliminates the need for expensive and often
hard-to-obtain static IP addresses. This feature allows
mail, web sites, and FTP services to be hosted on any Net
Integrator connected to an inexpensive dynamically addressed
DSL or cable Internet line.
DHCP & DNS servers
The auto-configuring DHCP server assigns IP
addresses to all users on the internal LAN, while the
integrated auto-configuring DNS server takes care of
Internet name resolution.
DNS server
Net Integrator will auto-configure itself to
be a caching DNS server for any local LAN. It can be also
configured to be a master DNS server providing DNS services
on the Internet.
LDAP server
All Net Integrator users are automatically
listed on a built-in LDAP server (Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol).
Integrated dial-up 56k modem
Pushing the price performance curve even
further, Net Integrator comes equipped with an optional 56k
modem. For primary or backup Internet access, the modem will
dial on demand whenever an Internet connection is required.
Removable hard disk for easy
in-the-field maintenance
Disk
replacement for upgrades or disk failure is fast and simple.
If the disk fails, a new disk is shipped overnight, allowing
the system to be up and running first thing in the morning.
RAID support
For increased performance and data
reliability, Net Integrator Mark I offers two drive devices
for flexible RAID 1 (mirroring) support.
Positive Web Content Filtering
Instead of blocking out undesirable web
sites, Positive Web Filtering enables the administrator to
create a list of desirable sites for user access and
blocking access to sites that do not appear on the list.
Using Positive Web Filtering, the administrator can restrict
web access to only a few select web sites and allow full
Internet access from specific workstations.
Remote deployment analog dial-in support
Analog dial-in support provides the ultimate
in remote deployment and management. Net Integrators can be
shipped to remote locations, plugged in and turned on by
anybody at the location. Then by simply dialing in through a
regular modem and phone line, Net Integrators can be
deployed, completely configured and managed from anywhere in
the world.
Optional V.35 / X.21 leased line
interface support
Eliminating the need for the high cost and
complexities of a router, optional V.35 and X.21 leased line
interface support provides serial communications at up to 4
Mbps via V.35 and X.21.
