v1.0, September 2006
Trend Micro Integration
If you have installed the Trend Micro Client/Server/Messaging Suite for SMB on your local
network, you can have the firewall enforce its use. When Antivirus Enforcement is selected, local
PCs will not be allowed Web access unless they have the Trend Micro OfficeScan client installed
and updated with the latest virus definitions.
• The Client/Server/Messaging Suite for Small and Medium Business protects file servers, mail
servers, and PCs on your network - and includes antispam capability. The Client/Server Suite
for Small and Medium Business protects files servers and PCs.
– Both products deliver a layered defense against viruses and other malicious code.
– Unlike competing antivirus products, both products work your NETGEAR VPN Firewall
to enforce antivirus policies - end users cannot access the Internet unless they have
antivirus protection with current pattern files installed.

easy installation, automatic transparent updates, and damage cleanup capability.

Easy Installation and Management
You can install, configure, and operate the ProSafe VPN Firewall 50 within minutes after
connecting it to the network. The following features simplify installation and management tasks:
• Browser-based management. Browser-based configuration allows you to easily configure
your firewall from almost any type of personal computer, such as Windows, Macintosh, or
Linux. A user-friendly Setup Wizard is provided and online help documentation is built into
the browser-based Web Management Interface.
• Smart Wizard. The VPN firewall automatically senses the type of Internet connection, asking
you only for the information required for your type of ISP account.
• VPN Wizard. The VPN firewall includes the NETGEAR VPN Wizard to easily configure
VPN tunnels according to the recommendations of the Virtual Private Network Consortium
(VPNC) to ensure the VPN tunnels are interoperable with other VPNC-compliant VPN routers
and clients.
• SNMP. The VPN firewall supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to let
you monitor and manage log resources from an SNMP-compliant system manager. The SNMP
system configuration lets you change the system variables for MIB2.
• Diagnostic functions. The firewall incorporates built-in diagnostic functions such as Ping,
Trace Route, DNS lookup, and remote reboot.
