The Dell
SonicWALL
SuperMassive
Series is Dell’s Next-Generation Firewall
(NGFW) platform designed for large
networks to deliver scalability, reliability
and deep security at multi-gigabit speeds
with near zero latency.
Built to meet the needs of enterprise,
government, university, and service
provider deployments, the SuperMassive
Series is ideal for securing enterprise
networks, data centers and service
providers.
Combining its massively multi-core
architecture and Dell SonicWALL’s
patented* Reassembly-Free Deep Packet
Inspection
®
(RFDPI) technology, the
SuperMassive E10000 and 9000 Series
deliver industry-leading application
control, intrusion prevention, malware
protection and SSL inspection at multi-
gigabit speeds. The SuperMassive Series is
designed with power, space, and cooling
(PSC) in mind, providing the leading
Gbps/Watt NGFW in the industry for
application control and threat prevention.
The Dell SonicWALL RFDPI engine scans
every byte of every packet across all
ports, delivering full content inspection of
the entire stream while providing high
performance and low latency. This
technology is superior to outdated proxy
designs that reassemble content using
sockets bolted to anti-malware programs
that are plagued with ineciencies and
overhead of socket memory thrashing
that leads to high latency, low performance
and file size limitations. The RFDPI engine
delivers full content inspection to
eliminate threats before they enter the
network and provides protection against
millions of unique malware variants
without file size, performance or latency
limitations. The RFDPI engine also
provides full inspection of SSL-encrypted
trac as well as non-proxyable
applications enabling complete
protection regardless of transport
or protocol.
Application trac analytics allow for
the identification of productive and
unproductive application trac in real
time which can then be controlled
through powerful application-level
policies. Application control can be
exercised on both a per-user and
per-group basis, along with schedules
and exception lists. All application,
intrusion prevention, and malware
signatures are constantly updated
by the Dell SonicWALL Threats Research
Team. Additionally, SonicOS, an advanced
purpose-built operating system, provides
integrated tools that allow for custom
application identification and control.
The design of the SuperMassive
Series firewalls provides near-linear
performance increases and scales up to
96 cores of processing power to deliver
up to 30 Gbps of threat prevention and
30 Gbps of application inspection and
control. The SuperMassive E10000 Series
is field upgradeable, future-proofing the
security infrastructure investment as
network bandwidth and security
requirements increase.
