The NetVanta
®
340 is a business-class
ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ IP access router.
It provides a single ADSL network inter-
face and an auto-sensing 10/100Base-T
Ethernet LAN interface. This product is ideal
for carrier bundled service offerings and
enterprise Internet access for secure, high-
speed corporate connectivity. In addition to
supporting ADSL (Annex A), and ADSL2, the
NetVanta 344 supports today’s most advanced
ADSL technology, ADSL2+, for applications
taking advantage of its greater reach and
higher bandwidth, up to 25 Mbps.
Standards Protocols
The versatile hardware platform of the
NetVanta 340 is further complemented
with the ADTRAN
®
Operating System (AOS).
The AOS allows for the support of standards-
based WAN protocols like PPP over ATM
and PPPoE over ATM, static and default
routes, and allows for fast, accurate network
convergence using routing protocols such
as BGP, OSPF, and RIP.
Security
The AOS provides a powerful, high perfor-
mance stateful inspection firewall. It will
examine all incoming and outgoing packets
against the security policies established by
the IT manager. In addition, the firewall can
identify and protect against common Denial
of Service (DoS) attacks like TCP syn flooding,
IP spoofing, ICMP redirect, ping-of-death,
and IP reassembly problems.
With the AOS Enhanced Feature Pack
Upgrade, the NetVanta 340 supports up to five
simultaneous IPSec VPN tunnels, and encryp-
tion algorithms like DES, 3DES, and AES.
With this upgrade, the NetVanta 340 is fully
compatible with other IPSec VPN equipped
NetVanta products.
Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS is also supported for delay sensitive
traffic like VoIP or video. To prioritize mission
critical traffic and control network congestion,
the NetVanta 340 uses Low Latency Queuing,
Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ), Class-based
WFQ, and DiffServ marking to establish
priority of IP packets routed over the WAN.
VoIP Ready
VoIP Ready In combination with the QoS
features, a specialized SIP Application Layer
Gateway (ALG) allows SIP traffic to traverse
NAT enabled firewalls. For an enterprise
network, this interoperability allows IP PBXs,
phones, and other SIP-based devices to set
up, tear down, and pass voice and call control
messages seamlessly through the integral
NAT-enabled firewall.
Administration
Administration The AOS offers a standard
Command Line Interface (CLI) that mimics
the widely adopted, industry de facto standard.
The sequence of commands to configure
similar devices is almost identical, virtually
eliminating training costs associated with
re-learning a new operating system or costly
industry certifications. The CLI also allows
for configuration scripts to be used, saved,
and downloaded for a quick and easy recovery
mechanism. In addition, an intuitive web-based
GUI provides step-by-step configuration
wizards, management capability, and the
ability to upload firmware updates.
ADTRAN, the leader in WAN connectivity,
offers proven and dependable equipment
that will increase your network performance,
lower costs and allow migration to next
generation technologies. The NetVanta 340
is no exception.
