Encore Networks’ VSR-1200™ is an integrated
security gateway that has been optimized to
support high-performance security and VPN
solutions over satellite and hybrid broadband
networks. With a designed based on
next-generation high-performance RISC
architecture and purpose-built VPN acceleration
processors, the VSR-1200™ can meet the
requirements of network scalability and
application security for carriers and
large-enterprise customers.
With its built-in, field-proven ELIOS™
operating systems, the VSR-1200™ is adapted for
broadband satellite-based VPN using Encore’s
innovative patented Selective Layer Encryption
(SLE) feature. The VSR-1200™ works across
multi-vendor satellite and terrestrial networks
and solves the issues of performance degradation
associated with running open-standards-based
IPSec over TCP-accelerated satellite
connections.
The VSR-1200™ is integrated with
best-of-breed IP VPN features, IP routing,
advanced QoS, dynamic packet inspection
firewall, embedded address management
capabilities, and legacy data support via a
high-density Remote Data Unit (RDU™) serial
module. Such flexibility provides
stateful-inspection firewall, with the scalable
performance needed for the most demanding
network applications.

SCALABLE
ARCHITECTURE
The VSR-1200™ is
designed based on next-generation hardware,
RISC-based architecture, and high performance
packet and encryption processors. Such scalable
architecture allows service providers to support
small, medium, and large-enterprise customers
running bandwidth-intensive applications over
satellite networks.
HIGH PERFORMANCE
VPN SOLUTIONS
Encore Networks’
patented Selective Layer Encryption capability,
integrated on top of feature-rich ELIOS™
operating system, provides channel-efficient VPN
solutions over satellite and hybrid networks.
Such implementation interoperates with different
satellite-modem vendors and IP Performance
Enhancing Proxy (PEP) providers.
CONVERGENCE OF
LEGACY APPLICATIONS
Convergence of
legacy data applications to broadband IP
networks is feasible with the VSR-1200™ via the
use of the high-density serial module RDU™ (2
RDUs per VSR-1200™). Each RDU™ supports up to 12
serial ports. A smooth migration strategy
solution for both remote terminals and legacy
hosts is supported via spoofing and conversion
of legacy and SCADA protocols including SDLC,
bisync, X.25, polled async, DNP, CDC, and
X.42.
EASY INSTALLATION
AND MANAGEMENT
Menu-driven user
interface, support of SNMP management, and
plug-and-play features allow for remote
configuration and support from a centralized
Network Operation Center (NOC). A multi-level
password-protection scheme limits access to
authorized users and personnel.
