Supports DrayDDNS since firmware version 3.8.5 .
The Vigor 2912 series is a complete network management solution designed for small business. Dual WAN provides load balancing or link redundancy to ensure reliable Internet access, and is a powerful VPN server for up to 16 simultaneous tunnels. Firewall and content filtering features can control incoming and outgoing network traffic, and they also provide bandwidth management functions that optimize bandwidth allocation and make the most of shared bandwidth.
Dual load WAN balance and repeat
The Vigor 2912 series has a fixed WAN port and a switchable LAN/WAN port that can be set up as a secondary WAN. 3G/4G USB modem can be connected to USB port to add cellular connection like WAN 3. All three WANs can be active simultaneously to share a traffic load, or some can be set up in "Failover ", which means the WAN interface will be in standby mode normally, but the router will automatically activate it in the scene of link failure or heavy traffic.
VPN for secure remote access
The Vigor 2912 series is also a powerful VPN server. Allows LAN to LAN VPN to communicate between branches, as well as VPN from host to LAN for secure remote access for remote workers. Dual WAN also allows redundant VPN tunnel to be built on an alternate WAN, so that if the main VPN fails due to the separation of the main WAN interface, a backup VPN can be built on the alternate WAN.
Firewall & Security
Vigor 2912 series supports packet inspection firewall (SPI) and flexible filtering rules, and can accept or reject packets based on source IP address, destination IP, protocol, port number or packet application. IP-based restrictions can be set to filter some HTTP traffic as well as various software, this can help you protect network customers from insecure website, as well as improve productivity by preventing wasted time and network resources on inappropriate network activities.
With an annual subscription to Siren web content filtering service (30-day free trial is included in every new router. ), you can also filter websites by their categories, and set up restrictions to block entire categories of websites (such as social networking, gambling.. etc.) Without having to select every location you wish to block.
Bandwidth Management
The Vigor 2912 series features bandwidth limit and session limit to restrict the maximum bandwidth or session number that the host can use, thereby preventing the transmission of bandwidth and router resources by a single host. Quality of Service (QoS) lets you reserve a certain amount of bandwidth for critical customers or time-sensitive applications, such as audio and video. The Vigor 2912 series also offers a simple option to prioritize VoIP traffic and improve call quality.
