IxDefend™ - Core Internet

IxDefend

Preemptive security analysis to minimize network threats

The IxDefend™ Core Internet bundle, designed to be used by enterprises and service providers, provides additional Internet services to the IxDefend product line. The Core Internet bundle preemptively eliminates security-related flaws in the implementation phase to harden all network enabled devices.

The protocols included are:
  • ARP – Address Resolution Protocol
  • DHCP – Dynamic Host Control Protocol, both client and server
  • DHCPv6 – Dynamic Host Control Protocol for IPv6, both client and server
  • DNS – Domain Name System protocol, including Zone Transfer, both client and server
  • FTP – File Transfer Protocol, server
  • HTTP - Hypertext Transfer Protocol for client and server
  • ICMP – Internet Control Message Protocol
  • ICMPv6 – Internet Control Message Protocol for IPv6
  • IGMP – Internet Group Management Protocol, versions 1, 2 and 3
  • IPv4 – Internet Protocol, version 4
  • IPv6 – Internet Protocol, version 6
  • NTP – Network Time Protocol, versions 1 and 2
  • TCP / TCPv6 – Transmission Control Protocol, both IPv4 and IPv6
  • UDP / UDPv6 – User Datagram Protocol, both IPv4 and IPv6
  • IPSec – IP security encapsulation
Any protocol grouping in the Core Internet bundle can be used in conjunction with the protocols found in other IxDefend product bundles, such as:
