“The NetMAX VPN Server Suite is intended to be installed as a
stand-alone VPN server to provide offices or individual users with
a secure network connection. It provides the software necessary to
make a standard Intel-based machine into a single-task security
appliance for a network edge, similar to pre-installed appliances
sold by Cobalt Networks (now owned by Sun) and Network
Appliance.”
“NetMAX VPN Sever includes the VPN server software, as well
as router, firewall and proxy/cache server packages. All the
packages are preconfigured and integrated into NetMAX’s modified
version of Red Hat Linux 6.2. A GUI-based installation program
and a Web browser management console are intended to make the
set-up and maintenance of the VPN server simple for users who are
not experts in Unix or Linux. The company recommends that the
NetMAX server run as a dedicated VPN device, and used additionally
as a file, print or Web server.”
