1 Product Overview

Introduction

The H3C SecPath U200 Series Unified Threat Management Products are new-generation UTM devices

designed for enterprise users.

The U200 series comprises three models:

z U200-A: Designed for large- and medium-sized enterprise users

z U200-M: Designed for medium-sized enterprise users

z U200-S: Designed for small- and medium-sized enterprise users

In addition to traditional firewall functions, the U200 series protect network security by providing a wide

range of functions including virtual firewall, security zone, intrusion detection and protection, gateway

anti-virus, anti-spam, P2P traffic control, and URL filtering. With the application specification packet filter

(ASPF) technology, a U200 series device can monitor connection setup processes and illegal

operations, and dynamically filter packets based on ACLs. Moreover, the U200 series support multiple

VPN services including IPSec VPN, L2TP VPN, and GRE VPN, and thereby can be used for

constructing a variety of VPN networks. The series deliver abundant routing capabilities and support

RIP and OSPF. Adopting a high-performance multi-core CPU, the U200-A, U200-M and U200-S can

support up to 10, 8, and 7 GE interfaces respectively, delivering high scalability for user investment

protection.

The U200 series are available with AC power supply to ensure high reliability, fully satisfy requirements

for network maintenance, update, and optimization, support detection of chassis internal temperature,

support network management, and provide a Web management interface.

The U200-A provides two MIM expansion slots for future service expansion. Currently, the slots support

the NSQ1GT2UA0 and NSQ1GP4U0 MIM modules.

The U200-M provides one MIM expansion slot and currently supports the same MIM as the U200-A

does.

The U200-S provides a mini expansion slot for future service expansion. Currently, the device supports

the 2-GE and NSQ1WLAN0 interface modules.

Features

The U200 series deliver the following features:

Powerful hardware platform

The U200 series perfectly fit in enterprise networks thanks to the adoption of MIPS64-based CPUs and

integrated high-performance hardware-based VPN accelerators.

Abundant security protection functions

z Security zone management: You can create security zones based on physical interfaces, logical

interfaces, Layer-2 Ethernet interfaces, or combinations of Layer-2 Ethernet interfaces and VLANs.

Interfaces belonging to the same security zone share the same security requirements in security

1-2

policy control. With security zones, security administrators can classify interfaces with different

security requirements into different zones. This simplifies policy maintenance and separates

network services and security services.

z Packet filtering: Applies standard or extended ACL rules between security zones to implement

packet filtering based on UDP or TCP port information. You can also implement packet filtering

based on time ranges.

z Application specific packet filter (ASPF): Dynamically determines whether to forward or drop a

packet by checking its application layer protocol information (such as FTP, HTTP, SMTP, RTSP, or

any other application layer protocol carried on TCP/UDP), monitoring the status of

connection-oriented application layer protocols, and maintaining status information for each

connection.

z P2P traffic control: Performs in-depth packet inspection to identify and manipulate P2P traffic. With

various control policies, a U200 series device controls P2P traffic flexibly.

z Virtual firewall: You can create multiple virtual firewalls, each implementing a separate security

policy. These virtual firewalls are isolated from one another and thus can be managed separately.

z Diverse attack prevention functions: Guards against attacks including Land, Smurf, Fraggle,

WinNuke, Ping of Death, Tear Drop, IP Spoofing, IP fragment, fragment, TCP flag invalid, large

ICMP packet, IP Sweep, port scan, and DDoS attacks such as SYN Flood, UDP Flood, and ICMP

Flood.

z Packet filtering: Blocks specified URLs to better utilize network resources.

Powerful VPN functions

z IPSec and GRE

z IKE and PKI

z A built-in hardware-based VPN encryption engine, ensuring high-performance VPN processing

Ethernet interfaces

1) Introduction

A UTM series device provides fixed 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet interfaces on its front panel, the

number of which depends on the device model. Each fixed Ethernet interface (RJ-45) uses two built-in

1-10

LEDs in the upper corners to indicate its status.

The media dependent interface (MDI) standard is typically used for the Ethernet interfaces of network

adaptors. The media dependent interface crossover (MDI-X) standard is typically used on hubs or LAN

switches.

3) RJ-45 connector

The 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet interfaces of the U200 series use RJ-45 connectors and support

MDI/MDIX autosensing. Category-5 twisted pair cables are used for RJ-45 connectors.

Figure 1-11

shows an RJ-45 connector.

Figure 1-11 RJ-45 connector

1-11

When working in the forced mode, Ethernet does not support MDI/MDIX autosensing.

4) Cable connecting electrical Ethernet interfaces

Ethernet electrical interfaces usually use category-5 twisted pair cables. Ethernet cables fall into two

categories:

z Standard cables: Also known as straight-through cables. At both ends of a standard cable, wires

are crimped in the RJ-45 connectors in the same sequence. A straight-through cable is used for

connecting a terminal (for example, a PC or UTM device) to a hub or LAN switch. Straight-through

cables are shipped with the U200 series.

z Crossover cables: At both ends of a crossover cable, wires are crimped in the RJ-45 connectors in

different sequences. A crossover cable is used for connecting two terminals (for example, two PCs

or UTM devices). You can make crossover cables yourself as needed.

z You can refer to the tables above when trying to identify or preparing the two types of Ethernet

cables.

z When preparing Ethernet cables, follow the color pairings in the tables. Otherwise, communication

quality will be affected even if the two devices at both ends can communicate.

z When preparing Ethernet cables, use shielded cables preferentially for electromagnetic

compatibility.

USB interface

USB interfaces can connect multiple types of devices and provide higher data transfer rates than

common parallel interfaces and serial interfaces.

The U200 series support USB 2.0 to provide important storage and security functions. For example,

with USB interfaces, you can provide large flash memory space for application programs, configuration

files, and VPN certificates for setting up secure VPN connections and, secure distribution of

configuration files.

In addition, USB interfaces provide a backup CF card mechanism to make file backup and restoration

easy and reliable.

Figure 1-13 USB interface

The USB interface provided by a U200 series device is a USB 2.0 type-A interface. Serving as a host, it

can connect an external USB device to expand the device's storage space for storing files and logs and

in addition, facilitate file transfer.

1-13

z At present, the USB interface provided on a U200 series device is a reserved module without

software support.

z Use the USB flash drives provided by H3C only, because the U200 series may be incompatible

with other USB flash drives.

z Avoid removing the USB flash drive when its LED is flashing. Doing so may cause the file system

on the drive to get corrupted.

CF card

1) Introduction

A compact flash (CF) card is used for storing logs, host files, and configuration files.

A U200 series device provides an external CF card slot for expanding storage space.

Three CF card options of different memory sizes are available:

z 256 MB

z 512 MB

z 1 GB

Use the CF cards provided by H3C only, because the U200 series may be incompatible with other CF

cards.

The CF card is hot-swappable. When the device is reading from or writing to the CF card or performing

any other file system related operation, the CF card LED blinks. Do not unplug the CF card in this state

because doing so can corrupt the file system in it.

Clock

The U200 series are designed with a clock module for providing system time. You can set the system

time at the command line interface.

The clock module can work despite power failure to ensure that the system time is correct at reboot.

With the device powered off, the clock module can work for at least 10 years.

Note that:

z Never replace the clock module battery when power is present on the device.

z The system time gets lost once the clock module battery is removed. You can set it at the

command line interface.

You can use three commands including clock datetime, ock summer-time one-off (or clock

summer-time repeating), and clock timezone to complete setting the system time. See the

accompanying documentation for how to do that.
