Review: TippingPoint 50

This IPS (the renamed UnityOne-50) is the baby of TippingPoint's range, able to support throughput of up to 50Mbps – but the firm has a full range of products, able to cope with throughput up to five gigabits. The TippingPoint 50 has dual Fast Ethernet ports, so it can work inline with a connection and a dedicated management port.

Review: V-Secure V-100

This might not be the most attractive appliance, with a bright green front, but its flexible architecture is likely to win it support. It is designed to sit internally or between the firewall and router and can support up to 100Mbps of network traffic. It comes with two Fast Ethernet ports and operates in-line with a network connection. There is also a dedicated management port.

XSGuard's C-Series is the easiest product to install. Just plug the internal side of your network into the marked Fast Ethernet port and the external side in the other marked port. Turn the box on and it connects to the XSGuard servers and starts filtering traffic at 100Mbps.
