Dear SmoothWall User,
This month? Newsletter features our new Corporate Firewall 4, the replacement for Corporate Server Version 3, which is to be released on Tuesday 14th June 2005.Corporate Firewall includes more than 100 new features and improvements over Corporate Server 3, yet remains at the same great price.As usual, customers with Upgrade Assurance will receive Corporate Firewall 4 at no extra cost.
Corporate Firewall
Two years in development, the most significant changes in Corporate Firewall include:
Easier to use and support, better reporting, better monitoring
New reports include outgoing traffic reporting/analysis
Configure what alert, report and status information to display on the main control page
All lists and log files can be sorted on any column
Google-like paginated log file viewers
Log file filtering
New logging controls: log to RAM disk, enable web proxy logging, retention and rotation
Improved Graphical User Interface (GUI) with Help displayed in a pop-up window
IP address ranges can be used on all appropriate configuration pages
Automatic download of software updates
Flexible configuration of the local network interfaces (ie two local, two DMZ, one of each)
Support for latest hardware including a comprehensive range of SATA disk controllers
PPPoE ADSL and PPTP ADSL support
Compact Flash support (for operation without a hard disk)
Software installation, configuration restore/backup from or to a USB (CDROM) device
Secure copy and automatic timed backup of configuration information
DHCP server supports multiple sub-nets (Green and Orange networks)
Improvements to Intrusion Detection System
NTP time server for local network computers
Deep Packet Inspection blocking of port agile Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic (SmoothRule)
Although Corporate Firewall is an evolution of Corporate Server, much of the underlying program code has been re-written to create a more flexible security platform for future developments.Anybody familiar with Corporate Server will quickly feel at home with Corporate Firewall; there are new configuration pages and features, but many of the original Corporate Server 3 features have been made easier to use.
See: http://www.smoothwall.net/products/firewall_comparison.html, our Firewall Comparison Chart, which provides detailed information on all new features and the differences between Corporate Firewall 4, Corporate Server 3 and Advanced Firewall.

SmoothGuardian 4.0
Version 4.0 of SmoothGuardian Web Content Filtering module was released at the same time as Advanced Firewall.SmoothGuardian 4.0 incorporates all the new web content filtering features introduced in Corporate Guardian Version 3.5.
Malicious code detection is a major new feature introduced in version 4.0 of Guardian.Its function is to detect and remove common in-page exploits from HTML web pages, such as ActiveX controls, Java Applets and Scripts.Such in-page exploits are not recognised by traditional anti-virus software, yet are often used to install spyware, viruses and Trojan horse software on user PCs.
URL Security is another new addition to Version 4.0.Amongst its facilities is the ability to force Google to work in ?afe Search?mode, where Google will not return any pornographic images or similar objectionable material.
The new malicious URL detection feature helps to prevent users falling victim to phishing identity thefts.Typical phishing scams start with an email that appears to come from a legitimate source such as PayPal or a bank; however, the HTML email contains a spoof URL to direct the victim to a bogus website.Of course, the purpose of the bogus site is to seduce the victim into divulging confidential information.These spoof URLs contain special character patterns to hide the true identity of the bogus website; Guardian intercepts these spoof URLs, blocks the bogus website and warns the user of their lucky escape!
See: http://www.smoothwall.net/products/smoothguardian40/ for more information about SmoothGuardian 4.0.
SmoothRule 4.0
The most important new feature introduced in Version 4.0 of SmoothRule is Deep Packet Inspection technology to block KaZaA, eDonkey, BitTorrent and other Peer to Peer (P2P) network traffic.Most network administrators want to block P2P, as it will consume considerable Internet bandwidth, risks copyright violation and is a major source of viruses, Trojans and spyware.
However, most P2P networks defeat traditional firewall port blocking by using port agile software, routing the P2P traffic through almost any available IP port.The Deep Packet Inspection capability of SmoothRule 4.0 allows it to detect and block P2P traffic regardless of which port it attempts to use.
