Secure Layer 2 tunnel over IP and MPLS networks

Secure Layer 2 tunnel over IP and MPLS networks

The new version 3.3 firmware of the atmedia Ethernet encryptors supports the secure tunnelling of Layer 2 Ethernet LANs over IP based WANs.

The use of Ethernet Layer 2 WAN connections is increasing rapidly. Some areas however remain limited to routed IP connections even today. Customers using mobile and satellite communication will rely completely on IP services now and in the future.

The interconnection of LANs over routed IP Networks causes problems regarding routing, data separation and the use of virtualization technologies, demanding layer 2 transparency. Since encryption of IP connections is mandatory today, the operation of an efficient and redundant LAN interconnection is very demanding.

With the new version 3.3 of atmedia encryption systems, there is now a simple, efficient and secure solution available to overcome the limitations of IP based interconnections.

This solution encrypts and signs the Ethernet data coming in from the local LAN on layer 2. The encrypted layer 2 packets will then be encapsulated into IP frames and sent out via the WAN link. The remote side receives the IP packets and strips away the encapsulation. After the check of the signature, the Ethernet data will then be decrypted and sent to the remote LAN. The result is a fully transparent and secure connection between the two LANs, operating at wire speed.

The solution can be implemented over any layer 2, IP V4, IP V6 or IP/MPLS based WAN connection. The new firmware 3.3 will be available from Q4/2012 for the current atmedia encryption devices (100M, 1G and 10G).

ATMedia GmbH's main area is secure and reliable data communication. As a market leader for high speed encryption in Germany, ATMedia is one of the few international companies that offer Gigabit class encryption devices. All ATMedia encryption products are developed and built in Germany. ATMedia is a privately owned and independent German company.

BSI approves new security functions of atmedia network encryptors
The new firmware version 3.3 of the atmedia encryptors has been evaluated and approved by the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) for the transmission of classified data. The approved firmware enables the atmedia encryption devices to encrypt data not only over layer 2 Ethernet but over any MPLS, IPv4 or IPv6 network at speeds from a few mbps up to 10 gbps with maximum security and reliability. The new IP
New compact Ethernet encryptor for mobile scenarios
The atmedia multipoint product range has been extended by the new atmedia 100M compact encryptor. The compact encryptor offers the same network and encryption functionality as the well-known 19" 100M encryptor. Because of its compact design it qualifies also for the use in small branches or for the connection of remote security relevant systems like automatic teller machines, access control systems or other stearing or monitoring systems. The new version 3.3 firmware
