Benefits
1) Low cost of ownership - Contivity is a purpose built IP Services
appliance that offers high-speed VPN (Encryption/Authentication),
stateful firewalling, robust IP routing, Wide Area Networking
(WAN) and Quality of Service (QoS), and Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP) services all in a tightly integrated and
fully managed platform. These core IP services are "licensable,"
allowing customers to "turn-up" and pay for services (VPN, firewall,
directory, advanced routing and QoS) as they are needed
2) Ease of deployment - The Contivity VPN Switch is designed to
be easily deployed at enterprise, branch and small-office locations,
and interoperates seamlessly with existing network components
such as routers, firewalls and existing authentication mechanisms.
Support for WAN interfaces, routing, firewalling, directory services
and QoS allows Contivity to assume a larger role as the enterprise
migrates these IP services from legacy devices over to the highly
integrated and centrally managed Contivity platform.
3) A world-class
VPN client - With an estimated 35 million+ Contivity VPN Clients
deployed globally since 1998, Nortel Networks has established
itself as a leader in the remote access VPN market. Our VPN client's
robust feature set, extreme stability and overall ease of use
supports customers' requirement in rolling out large numbers VPN
users while limiting deployment issues and containing support
costs
4) Superior
security features - Network managers can centrally administer
all aspects of their security policy to include all user/site
security parameters and bandwidth management policies to ensure
seamless connectivity with adherence to overall security policy.
Critical features such as firewall policies prevent attacks from
would be-hackers. Any security policy breach results in immediate
VPN tunnel termination. Contivity offers broad support for all
leading digital certificates (PKI), strong authentication, global
dialer, personal firewall, intrusion detection and directory vendors
to ensure customers can deploy best-of-breed end-to-end solutions.
Contivity also has been certified by both TruSecure (ICSA) for
IPSec multi-vendor interoperability, and by the Federal Government's
FIPS-140 certification process to ensure high levels of security
compliance
5) Performance,
scalability and high availability - Contivity supports thousands
of simultaneous routing, VPN and firewall connections at throughput
rates in excess of hundreds of Mbps. As these IP Services are
applied to users and connections, hardware acceleration and compression
insure no impact to the expected performance. Contivity delivers
on high availability in our hardware switch design, software feature
set, and by overall high availability network design to insure
our customer's networks continue operating 24x7x365
