The Cisco ASA 5505 Adaptive Security Appliance is a next-generation, full-featured security appliance for small business, branch office, and enterprise teleworker environments that delivers high-performance firewall, IPSec and SSL VPN, and rich networking services in a modular, “plug-and-play” appliance. Using the integrated Web-based Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager, the Cisco ASA 5505 can be rapidly deployed and easily managed, enabling businesses to minimize operations costs. The Cisco ASA 5505 features a flexible 8-port 10/100 Fast Ethernet switch, whose ports can be dynamically grouped to create up to three separate VLANs for home, business, and Internet traffic for improved network segmentation and security. The Cisco ASA 5505 provides two Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports, enabling simplified deployment of IP phones or wireless access points for extended network mobility. As business needs grow, customers can install a Security Plus upgrade license, enabling the Cisco ASA 5505 to scale to support a higher connection capacity and a higher number of IPSec VPN users, add full DMZ support, and integrate into switched network environments through VLAN trunking support. Furthermore, this upgrade license maximizes business continuity by enabling support for redundant ISP connections and stateless Active/Standby high-availability services.Features:High performance for broadband access in small officesEnhanced security, including:Stateful Inspection FirewallIP Security (IPSec) VPNs (Triple Data Encryption Standard [3DES] or Advanced Encryption Standard [AES])Intrusion prevention system (IPS)Antivirus support through Network Admission Control (NAC) and enforcement of secure access policies4-port 10/100 managed switch with VLAN supportSecure WLAN 802.11b/g option with use of multiple antennasEasy setup, deployment, and remote management capabilities through Web-based tools and Cisco IOS Software
