PLANET BM-2101 - Manual (Page 7)

Chapter 1
Introduction
The BM-2101 is specifically designed for SMB networks. It has built-in four
10/100Mbps Ethernet ports include two WAN and one LAN and DMZ ports. No
broadband router is required for users with only one public IP address. It also supports
virtual server, Multi-DMZ, and dynamic DNS functions that are very useful for our
customers to share local resources with Internet users.
For bandwidth management, packets can be classified based on IP address, IP subnet,
and TCP/UDP port number. The device has more than 40 of the most common
protocols such as H.323, Oracle, HTTP, FTP, and so on for easy definition. The
administrator can then define policies to ensure committed and maximum bandwidth
levels for inbound and outbound traffic in each class. The administrator can also define
three priority levels for each policy to ensure high priority packets receive the maximum
available bandwidth. In addition, each policy can have a schedule defined for when the
policy is activated or inactivated in increments of 30 minutes.
Both the NAT and DMZ mode are supported, and therefore can maintain the existing
network infrastructure without reconfiguring. The BM-2101 provides policy-based
firewall protection and several hacker protections to prevent hackers’ attack. Besides,
the comprehensive alarm and log function allow the network manager to easily enhance
the security of local network.
