Firewall User Guide
Introduction
Welcome to Multi-Tech's Dual Ethernet ProxyServer, model number MTPSR1-120 (hereafter,
Firewall) a high speed Internet access device that provides firewall protection to your corporate
secured (private) LAN and allows Internet access to the Internet Services Network (public LAN)
that resides outside the firewall. Internet access can be provided through new technologies, such
as cable or DSL modems, connecting to an existing high speed public LAN, or connecting the
RS232 WAN port on the back of the unit that allows Internet access up to T1/E1 access speeds.
The Firewall provides two Ethernet connections that implement firewall protection and gateway
security for your LAN resources and provides megabit data transfer rates (up to 20 times faster
than a 56K modem) for your Internet access.
The Firewall provides two Ethernet 10Base-T ports which connect your private secured LAN to
the LAN 1 connection and the Internet Services Network resources to the LAN 2 connection, and
a Command port for configuration. An additional RS232/V.35 port is provided for an alternate
connection to an external WAN for connecting your secure corporate LAN directly to an ISP.
System management is provided through the command port using bundled Windows® software
which provides easy-to-use configuration menus.
