Cisco IDS-4215-4FE-K9 IDS 4215 Intrusion Detection System Network Security/Firewall Appliance

The Cisco IDS 4215 sensor is used in the Cisco Intrusion Protection System. This intrusion detection system sensor works in concert with the other components to efficiently protect your data and information infrastructure. With the increased complexity of security threats, achieving efficient network intrusion security solutions is critical to maintaining a high level of protection. Vigilant protection ensures business continuity and minimizes the effect of costly intrusions.

Additionally, Cisco's flexible deployment options allow businesses to minimize the total cost of ownership of their IDS deployments by delivering: Unprecedented price/performance ratios The ability to simultaneously protect multiple network subnets through the support for multiple sniffing interfaces, thereby delivering up to five sensors in one A wide array of performance options Investment protection by delivering modular, upgradable components Support for multi-VLAN traffic Embedded web-based management solutions packaged with the IDS sensors

This 80-Mbps performance for the Cisco IDS 4215 is based on the following conditions: 800 new TCP connections per second, 800 HTTP transactions per second Average packet size of 445 bytes Running Cisco IDS 4.0 Sensor Software
