The increasing number of malicious web attacks has driven major corporations to have deployed multiple security measures including proxy servers, firewalls, multiple anti-virus scanning engines and encryption technologies against various types of cyber crime. While these measures are working 24/7 to keep the enterprise network safe, they system loads may eventually experience performance degradations due

The drive to redefine enterprise total cost of ownership (TCO) has contributed to the rise of midrange systems, the type of servers that can process large-scale instructions and applications, though less powerful than mainstream servers. Midrange network servers have been favored by small-and-medium enterprises and regional division and subsidiaries of global corporations due to their

Many of today’s networking devices are built with LAN bypass function to prevent failed LAN transmission from impeding important in-flow critical data. The function is to ensure fault-tolerance for network appliances so that essential communications an be still continued even when software, hardware or power failure occurs. The basic idea of bypass is “cross-connection”. When

Secure Boot is a form of verified booting technology which ensures boot path validations. As defined in UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) specifications, this BIOS-based technology assures that the system firmware checks if the boot loader is signed with a cryptographic key contained in the database in the firmware. In other words, Secure Boot is

The launch of Intel® Xeon® processor E5 v3 series platform indicates that IT management is heading into a new generation of processing capabilities. The new Intel® Xeon® server-based platform presents a great leap in CPU performance, RAM efficiency, PCH connectivity, and networking modules to deliver unprecedentedly low latency, high bandwidth and relatively lower power consumption.

The powerful coupling of the new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v3 and the Intel C610 PCH, codenamed “Grantley,” is a platform designed to meet the challenges of today’s virtualization and security management. Improvements offered by the Grantley platform are evident in Lanner’s FW-8896, a 2U rackmount network appliance capable of boosting network appliance’ processing power,

In the cloud computing era people are connected to the Internet through their devices wherever they go. However, with all this convenience of data accessibility and availability come big challenges in data protection. Data protection is one of the most important security issues on the Internet. Using security features to protect data, applications, and systems

There is a growing need for increased agility in cloud computing infrastructure and for the rapid delivery of services in virtualized environments. These services include the management of underlying networks to maintain the service quality defined in the service-level agreements (SLAs) between service providers and their customers. To answer these demands, Lanner Electronics has developed

The trend of extending Ethernet networks beyond familiar LAN has led Internet service provides to deliver Carrier Ethernet services to Enterprises, businesses and residential end-users. The growing ubiquity of Ethernet technology goes hand in hand with cloud computing to fully transform to the next-generation computing and communication model. It has pushed service providers worldwide to
