Enterprise Reliability & Multi-WAN Failover Safeguards
The TRENDnet TWG-431BR Gigabit Multi-WAN VPN Business Router is an advanced, high-performance networking centerpiece engineered to eliminate office internet downtime and secure remote workers. Designed explicitly for SMB networks requiring steady internet access, this router allows businesses to connect up to four independent ISP lines simultaneously to deliver uninterrupted network operations.
Equipped with high-performance hardware-encrypted VPN functionality, the TWG-431BR allows your distributed workforce safely to access central office files from anywhere via SSL, IPsec, PPTP, and L2TP with IPsec connection modes. With a high-speed 900Mbps NAT routing throughput and dynamic load balancing, your business data paths stay clear, redundant, and highly secure.
Key Product Features
- Intelligent Multi-WAN Interfacing: Flexibly configure its 5 x Gigabit ports into either a 4 WAN / 1 LAN or 1 WAN / 4 LAN configuration to balance traffic or support automated connection failovers.
- High Availability Redundancy: Group multiple TWG-431BR hardware units together in an active-passive cluster to build server room fault tolerance and ensure zero single points of failure.
- Secure Multi-Protocol VPN: Safely bridges remote workspaces using hardware-accelerated SSL VPN (up to 30 tunnels) and multi-point site-to-site IPsec VPN tunnels.
- IEEE 802.1Q Inter-VLAN Routing: Segregate department traffic cleanly and improve data security with support for up to 8 independent internal VLAN subnets.
- Granular Traffic & Content Control: Keep your network efficient with advanced Bandwidth Control (QoS for VoIP/Streaming) along with customizable URL, keyword, and MAC access filtering rules.
- Professional Management Options: Take total control using traditional secure HTTP/HTTPS web-browser interfaces or via advanced Command Line Interface (CLI) tools like SSH, Telnet, and Console management.
