Fail Safe

IPS Connectivity - Is Your IPS Fail-Safe ?

Intrusion prevention systems (IPSs) protect your network from malware and unauthorized access. But is your IPS hurting your network´s reliability? IPSs are installed in-line in the network to intercept suspect traffic, but what happens if the IPS loses power or gets overwhelmed by too much traffic? The network goes down or slows down, negatively impacting employee productivity and business profitability.

An iBypass Switch protects your network against power losses and IPS slowdowns. It installs in-line in your network so the IPS doesn´t have to, and it makes sure your traffic keeps flowing even when the IPS doesn´t.

Bypass Your Troubled IPS

The iBypass Switch creates a fail-safe in-line port for your IPS. When the IPS failures, the iBypass Switch also enables you to take down the IPS for maintenance or to redeploy it without incurring any network downtime. Simply unplug the IPS, and the iBypass Switch automatically keeps the traffic flowing. You can even test new IPS signature sets by putting the IPS in passive (intrusion detection or IDS) mode, because the iBypass Switch acts like Tap and copies the traffic to the IPS when the IPS is out of the circuit.

More Network Uptime

Besides protecting your network from power and IPS failures, the iBypass Switch also enables you to take down the IPS for maintenance or to redeploy it without incurring any network downtime. Simply unplug the IPS, and the iBypass Switch automatically keeps the traffic flowing. You can even test new IPS signature sets by putting the IPS in passive (intrusion detection or IDS) mode, because the iBypass Switch acts like a Tap and copies the traffic to the IPS when the IPS is out of the circuit.

About the Author

when did the ford engine fail safe more first appear?

i was just curious when the first year ford came out with a fail safe mode for explorers. If nothing else i was jsut curious if it was on the the 1998 exporers 4.6L engines. thanks.

They call it Failure Mode Effects Management, and it's been around since the late 1980's. It has been improved greatly over the years, and yes your '98 most certainly has it. No problem!
