Intoto Inc. Announces the Availability of Firewall Security Solution On the Intel IXP1200 Network Processor and Its Plans to Support the New Intel IXP2400 and IXP425 Network Processors.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers Intel Developer Forum Intel Developer Forum (IDF), is a twice yearly gathering of technologists to discuss Intel products and products based around Intel products. The first IDF was in 1997. There is usually a Spring IDF and a Fall IDF. 2002 SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 26, 2002 Intoto Utilizes the Power of Intel(R) Network Processing Building Blocks to Accelerate the Development of Scalable, Flexible Network Security Solutions for High-performance Gateway Equipment Intoto Inc., today announced the availability of Stateful Inspection Firewall Security Solution (npFirewall) for the Intel(R) IXP (1) (Internet EXchange Processor) See IXA. (2) (Internet eXchange Point) A public junction point on the Internet that provides an on-ramp to the Internet as well as a location for carriers to exchange traffic. 1200 Network Processor and its plans to support security solutions for the new Intel(R) IXP2400 and IXP425 Network Processors. This highly scalable and flexible security solution on Intel(R) network processors address the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and requirements for building high-performance secured gateway applications including broadband access platforms, QoS, firewalls and intrusion detection, virtual private networks, load balancing equipment and multi-service switches. "Intoto's implementation of a full-featured NAT (Network Address Translation) An IETF standard that allows an organization to present itself to the Internet with far fewer IP addresses than there are nodes on its internal network. and Firewall solution in microcode, can deliver scalable performance on communications equipment based on the Intel(R) IXP1200, IXP2400 and IXP425 Network Processors," said Doug Davis, general manager of the Intel(R) Network Processor Division. "Intoto's microcode helps equipment makers to quickly integrate security features into their products, accelerating their time to market." Intoto is a leading provider of the embedded security software solutions for gateway devices and plans to deliver stateful inspection firewall for the Intel(R) IXP2400 and IXP425 Network Processors. Intoto's iGateway npFirewall solution for the Intel(R) IXP1200 Network Processor offers full-featured Stateful Inspection Firewall software, which is based on Intoto's ICSA See TruSecure. certified iGateway Firewall. The architecture supports the use of multiple data-processing engines on Intel(R) network processors, enabling the OEMs to build scalable high performance Firewall equipment. The npFirewall has the ability to create multiple virtual firewalls using subscriber specific policies. The Cyber Defense engine protects against a large number of Internet attacks including DoS, DDoS, & reassembly attacks and has built-in NAT with support for a wide range of Application Level Gateways (ALGs). The npFirewall also is capable of Application content filtering, authenticated remote user access, web based management, logging, and administration. "We utilize our experience in providing award winning secured gateway software platforms to deliver high-performance security solutions including Firewall and VPN (Virtual Private Network) A private network that is configured within a public network (a carrier's network or the Internet) in order to take advantage of the economies of scale and management facilities of large networks. for Intel's(R) family of network processors." said Sathyan Iyengar, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Intoto Inc. "The highly optimized software architecture will help enable OEMs to rapidly deploy high-performance secured gateway equipment on Intel's(R) new network processors." Intoto is a member of the Intel(R) Internet Exchange Architecture Internet Exchange Architecture (acronym: IXA) is a chip set and framework produced by Intel Corporation used by manufacturers to design customised network processors. Introduced in 1999, the first model was based on the StrongARM processor. (Intel(R) IXA) Developer Network. Intoto's security solutions roadmap for Intel(R) network processors include Virtual Private Network (VPN) and MPLS-VPN software targeted for release in Q2-02. Other network processor software solutions from Intoto include ATM (AAL2) and MPLS (1) (MultiProtocol Lambda Switching) The earlier name for GMPLS. See GMPLS. (2) (MultiProtocol Label Switching) A standard from the IETF for including routing information in the packets of an IP network. software scheduled for release in Q1/Q2-2002. Intoto plans to support its network processor software products on all future versions of network processors from Intel(R). About Intoto, Inc.
