SMC Networks has joined the 802.11g party with a host of new 802.11g products. Its Barricade G 2.4-GHz 54-Mbps Wireless Cable/DSL Broadband Router and Wireless Cardbus Adapter Wireless PCI Card are both backward compatible with and five times faster than 802.11b products. The Barricade G is platform-independent and sports a four-port dual-speed 10/100-Mbps switch and a 54-Mbps 802.11g draft-compliant access point. Security is provided via a Stateful Packet Inspection firewall and VPN support. You can also block by URL or keyword. The Barricade G includes NAT support, IP or MAC address filtering, 64/128-bit WEP, support for 802.1x authentication and Wi-Fi Protected Access.
The Array SP provides "borderless control and inspection for Web and SSL traffic," according to Array Networks. Made to stand alone or to complement the company's other application management products (see our sneak of Array Traffic Manager), this forward-facing proxy device caches, decrypts, examines and re-encrypts both internally and externally originated SSL traffic, and caches and inspects all Port 80 traffic. Additional features include traffic-management functions and acceleration of both inbound and outbound content.
