Moxa has announced a gigabit performance Firewall/VPN secure router. The EDR-G903 series is designed to defend industrial networks by safeguarding sensitive control networks and mission-critical industrial assets by forming a trusted intranet environment. Moxa’s EDR-G903 series support three copper/fibre combo gigabit ports with built-in RJ45 ports and SFP slots for connecting to a WAN, a LAN, and a WAN or DMZ with rapid transfer bandwidth.

The dual WAN feature is suitable for establishing a reliable internet connection backup and for providing a secondary option for load sharing with two internet service providers. A wide operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C makes the EDR-G903 suitable for industrial applications.

Moxa’s EDR-G903 supports intelligent firewall functions to simplify security configuration. The Quick Automation Profile capability is designed to help users quickly enable over 25 common fieldbus protocols - including EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Foundation fieldbus, Modbus/TCP, and Profinet - from a user-friendly web UI with a simple click operation. Other firewall services, such as PolicyCheck for policy debugging and SettingCheck for confirming the firewall rules, increase firewall accuracy.

A VPN feature will be available in Q4 2010 and can be added to the router via a firmware upgrade.
