The RS-1000 features OvisLink's second generation bandwidth management function which easier setting and more features. Administrators can control the bandwidth speed for downstream and upstream traffic separately. For each traffic direction, administrator can define the Guaranteed (Minimum) and Maximum bandwidth. Furthermore, the bandwidth definition can be saved as a policy for firewall. So administrator can easily control the bandwidth of a single IP, IP group, or by applications. Best of all, application support are user definable for infinite expandability. Whether it is for business to set priority of their application or for selling Internet services by bandwidth, the RS-1000 has the function for it.

At the factory's default setting, the RS-1000 does not open any services. Administrator should decide whether to open all services (just go to the policy page and create a policy from inside any to outside any and create another one from outside any to inside any) or open certain services only. The policies are listed in a order list, so administrator has the flexibility to choose which policy has the highest priority. Best of all, all these policies can be activate or deactivate by automatic scheduling (Monday to Sunday, starting and finishing hours)

For each policy, administrator can define a password needed for accessing. Take for example, you can set a policy for web browsing (port 80). And the gateway will automatically pop-up a window asking the user to enter password when they want to access the Internet. Up to 200 authentication policies can be made. This feature is useful for system administrator who want to limit certain service to certain individuals regardless of which station they use. Furthermore, it can also be used for control of selling Internet services.

System administrators can establish and enforce acceptable Internet access policies. Content filtering enables the blocking of certain websites either by IP or by domain name. Administrators can also define schedule for each content filtering rules. But best of all, you can also choose to block javascript, active-X, POP-UP, or Cookies. Up to 300 content filtering rules can be made.

Some router provide Multi-DMZ support. But the RS-1000 goes one extra step to provide multi virtual server support. So that means if your ISP provide more than one real IP address, you can take full advantage of it by assigning different forwarding rules for each real IP address. Up to 4 real IP addresses are supported each with its own NAT table.

The gateway can be either configured in transparent mode as a gateway or enable the NAT router function. It has many security features built-in such as SPI, SYN, ICMP, DoS, UDP, Ping of Death and Port Scan. The traffic log can be sent automatically by email or by Syslog function. The gateway even features Accounting Report function that display individual IP/service's usage in time or Kilobytes. Therefore, administrator can charge account by time or traffic used. The RS-1000 is a product that combines the most important and useful security features in one package. It allows you to take complete control over your network.
