The WatchGuard Firebox III is a specially designed and optimized
security appliance. Solid-state architecture removes the risk of hard-drive
failure and disk crashes. Three independent network interfaces allow you
to separate your protected office network from the Internet while
providing you an optional public interface for hosting Web, e-mail, or
FTP servers. Each network interface is independently monitored and
visually displayed on the front of the Firebox.
