Cisco ASA 5510 Adaptive Security Appliance

The Cisco ASA 5510 Adaptive Security Appliance is a 1U rackmount firewall that combines stateful inspection, IPsec and SSL VPN, and optional intrusion prevention in one compact unit. It delivers up to 300 Mbps of firewall throughput and 170 Mbps of 3DES/AES VPN throughput, which suits small production networks, branch offices, and touring or venue rack systems. VLAN support and a Security Plus license upgrade let you segment show control, AV-over-IP, crew, and guest traffic, and give you more ports, more connections, and failover redundancy. You can manage it through the browser-based ASDM interface or the full Cisco CLI, so it fits both quick deployments and detailed IT-managed setups.
