Guidance for current software versions
The user interfaces and product names shown in these videos may differ slightly from the current software version, including certain elements of the user interface and menu structure. However, the tutorials continue to provide valuable guidance on the fundamental concepts, configuration workflows, and best practices for configuring your R&S®LANCOM Unified Firewall.
If you notice any differences while following the individual steps, we recommend consulting our up-to-date Support Knowledge Base or using our AI-powered chatbot. There you will find the latest instructions, additional information, and assistance tailored to your specific use case.
When choosing the right firewall, both the amount of data traffic and the size of the company are decisive factors. With R&S®LANCOM Unified Firewalls and the virtual R&S®LANCOM vFirewall variants, you are equipped for virtually any deployment scenario, while the integrated Unified Threat Management (UTM) features provide a high level of network security.
Secure IT starts at the edge of the network: Discover secure edge computing now!
Secure edge computing brings computing power and security mechanisms directly to where the data is created — at the edge of the network. Local firewalls not only handle network protection but also serve as platforms for isolated software applications. This allows time- and information-critical processes to run directly on-site. The result: higher speed, lower latency, and stronger protection of confidential information.
All R&S®LANCOM Unified Firewalls and the R&S®LANCOM vFirewall will support container technology, which forms the basis for secure edge computing, from the firmware version LCOS FX 11.2 onwards.
SIEM integration service or cloud-managed R&S®LANCOM Unified Firewalls
Robust security management is essential, especially for larger organizations and managed service providers (MSPs). A centralized Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system helps organizations detect, analyze, and respond to security threats quickly.
We invite you to enhance your SIEM with our integration service for cloud-managed R&S®LANCOM Unified Firewalls, ensuring comprehensive detection of attacks on your network infrastructure. Further information about technical prerequisites and setup can be found here:
Use the AI chatbot for product consultation
With the “Digital Assistant”, an AI-based chatbot is available to you around the clock for the R&S Networks and Cybersecurity product portfolio of routers / gateways, firewalls, switches and access points.
Use it for initial guidance and product recommendations, as well as for general questions about features, areas of application and typical networking scenarios. For individual configuration questions, your support contact will of course continue to be happy to assist you.
We look forward to your questions and hope you enjoy trying it out!
What matters in network security
An essential part of a company's IT infrastructure is ensuring network security. Used effectively, it reliably fends off unauthorized access, data manipulation, or data theft with blackmail, system paralysis (DDoS attacks), and other damage caused by hackers, malware, and viruses.
Read more about what risks and threats lurk and what immediate measures you can take to maintain the security of your network.
Comprehensive security features
Unified Threat Management (UTM), R&S®PACE 2 Deep Packet Inspection, and Application Management are just some of the industry-leading security features of the powerful LCOS FX operating system, which provides the basis for the operation of all R&S®LANCOM Unified Firewalls and R&S®®LANCOM vFirewalls. The feature set is regularly expanded and tested through strict quality assurance.
Convenient firewall management tools
Two management tools are available for central management and monitoring of your firewall: A graphical Web interface supports you with clear dashboards for the detailed configuration of your firewalls, while the R&S®LANCOM Management Cloud manages all devices, networks, and configurations in a highly automated way.
Everything NIS2-compliant and digitally sovereign?
Does your technical equipment fulfil the NIS2 requirements? Does it support your digital sovereignty?
The EU directive on network and information security for enterprises, NIS2, may also affect you and sets strict security standards that could require action.
A plus point: measures for NIS2 compliance also strengthen your digital sovereignty. Put your network to the test now!
