Requirements Map:
All of the SonicWALL products share a common software code base, which means that the technicians and operators from IPRVnet will be able to manage any product in our family after they become familiar with our easy-to-use management tools. In this proposal, we are proposing the following products:

• SonicWALL PRO-VX or SonicWALL PRO for larger central sites (e.g. the headquarters in scenario 3)
• SonicWALL SOHO2 with VPN Upgrade for branch offices (e.g. the branch offices in scenario 3) and also for small businesses (e.g. the small business in scenario 1)
• SonicWALL TELE2 for broadband-connected telecommuters (e.g. in scenarios 2 and 3)

In addition to the products above, SonicWALL is proposing the following for telecommuters and mobile workers using dial-up Internet access:

• SonicWALL VPN Client Software for Windows

Finally, it is critically important for IPRVnet to have a set of robust management tools to enable scalable, central management and monitoring of the CPE being used to deliver these services. For this requirement, SonicWALL proposes:

• SonicWALL Global Management System (SGMS)

SGMS is a robust management system that resides at the ISP NOC on a Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 or Solaris server. It is capable of managing thousands of remote SonicWALLs, and can handle the activation and configuration of all of the standard features and optional upgrades available for SonicWALL Internet Security Appliances.

We are confident that IPRVnet will find the SonicWALL solution to be very compelling for the managed security services that they are planning to roll out.
