• WAN Backup The MH-2001 can monitor each WAN link status
and automatically activate backup links when a failure is detected.
The detection is based on the configurable target Internet
addresses
• Outbound Load Balancing The network sessions are assigned
based on the user configurable load balancing mode, including
“Auto”, “Round-Robin”, “By Traffic”, “By Session”, “By Packet”,
“By Source IP” and “By Destination IP”. Users can also configure IP
or TCP/UDP type of traffic which is connected by WAN port
• Policy-based Firewall The built-in policy-based firewall prevents
many known hacker attacks including SYN attack, ICMP flood,
UDP flood, Ping of Death, etc. The access control function allows
only specified WAN or LAN users using allowed network services
on specified time
• VPN Connectivity The security gateway supports PPTP and IPSec
VPN. With DES, 3DES, AES encryption and SHA-1/MD5
authentication, the network traffic over public Internet is secured
• Content Filtering The security gateway can block network
connection based on URLs, Scripts (The Pop-up, Java Applet,

database through external RADIUS and POP3 server
• Bandwidth Management Network packet can be classified based
on IP address, IP subnet and TCP/UDP port number and it gives
guarantee and bursts bandwidth with three levels of priority
• Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) The Dynamic DNS
service allows users to name alias dynamic IP address to a static
hostname
• Multiple NAT Multiple NAT allows local port setting multiple
subnet and connecting to the Internet through different WAN IP
addresses
