SolidDNS™ Datasheet
As enterprises begin the transition into IPv6, they face the daunting challenge of adapting existing tools to match the specifications of the new standard. Nowhere will this be more apparent than in the basic infrastructure services such as network configuration, security, and naming services.
The SolidDNS™ appliances are designed to address the critical need for domain name services in an IPv6 environment. The appliance integrates the latest security patches for BIND, including source port randomization to counter recently discovered DNS flaws, while providing backward compatibility with existing IPv4 networks.
The SolidDNS™ secure DNS and DHCP appliance platform from InfoWeapons boasts extensive support for DNSSEC. Using graphical management interfaces, the appliance provides tools for managing cryptographic keys and features bulk zone signing, automatic zone re-signing and key rollover, user-specified key lifetimes, and can act as an authoritative DNSSEC server.
The latest version, SolidDNS™ 4.1, has full support for NSEC3, Active Directory Authentication, VLAN tagging, IP aliasing, and DNAME. It highlights a Managed Servers module that enables administrators to manage DNS data of multiple SolidDNS™ appliances, monitor other network devices, and perform failover over WAN.
