Next-Gen Firewall - GMS VOIPMONSTER FZ-LLC

Layer 7 traffic classification and control

Meraki's proprietary packet processing engine analyzes network traffic up to and including layer 7, using sophisticated fingerprinting to identify users, content, and applications on the network. Each network flow is categorized, and access control policies are enforced — for example, blocking Netflix and prioritizing video conferencing. By classifying traffic at layer 7, Meraki's next generation firewall controls evasive, encrypted, and peer-to-peer applications, like BitTorrent or Skype, that cannot be controlled by traditional firewalls. Meraki's next generation firewall is included in all wireless access points and security appliances.

Identity-based
content filtering

Meraki security appliances feature a powerful category-based content filter, which matches content against millions of URLs in dozens of categories. Meraki's content filtering engine features native Active Directory integration to apply access controls specific to each class of users. Content lists and application signatures are updated dynamically from the cloud, so that security policies remain up to date even as content and applications change.

Device-aware
firewall rules

Meraki's wireless firewall includes device-aware access controls, enabling administrators to ensure the appropriate level of network access for each class of devices. Layer 7 device fingerprints automatically detect and classify Apple iOS, Android, Windows, Mac OS, and other clients. These fingerprints are integrated into Meraki's firewall, so that administrators can, for example, apply firewall rules specific to iPads in a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) network.
