General Information

The problem with RADIUS and TACACS+
Routers installed in the field are all connected to a network. When this network fails, the only way to reach the router is to dial into the console port for remote maintenance. This opens up a "back door" to the network which many network managers lock with RADIUS or TACACS+. The problem with these protocols is that they require the network to be functioning in order to contact the security server. This is in direct conflict with the purpose of the console port which is only used when the network is "down". Therefore, RADIUS and TACACS+ provide inadequate security for router console port protection.

The Solution
UniGuard-V34 connects directly to the console port and provides the highest level of protection regardless of the state of the network. This is done by maintaining an internal security database that is updated by a central database on an "as needed" basis. This internal database provides fast, reliable, two factor authentication every time a technician accesses the router. Full session level encryption can be enabled by using a CDI encryption modem at the technician end of the call.

How do I manage all these remote devices?
DDM, Distributed Database Manager , can maintain an unlimited number of UniGuards and or Port Authority devices remotely from a single workstation. This eliminates the need to update each unit individually when there is a database change. This software program automatically maintains the database of each remote device and is capable of down-loading the entire database of units manually or automatically at preset times. Reports can also be extracted automatically.

What can I connect them to?
Anywhere you are afraid to put a non secure modem you can put a UniGuard with confidence! Examples include; Routers, Firewalls, PBX's , remote switches, remote monitoring stations, remote power stations, out of band managers, backup sites, remote systems, and more! Checkout our Cabling Options!
