Palo Alto Networks Selects Data Connection IP Routing Network Protocols
Jul 02, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) --
Data Connection (DCL), an independent provider of network protocol software, announced that Palo Alto Networks is using Data Connection's DC-OSPF and DC-RIP IP routing protocol stacks on its PA Series next-generation firewall products.
Data Connection's portable IP routing protocol stacks enable the entire family of next generation firewalls from Palo Alto Networks to participate in layer 3 routing networks as they enable enterprises to see and control applications, users, and content.
"We chose Data Connection's IP routing protocols because they have the routing feature sets we need, were a great fit with PAN-OS, and supported both single and multi-core processors across our full next-generation firewall product line," said Nir Zuk, Founder and CTO at Palo Alto Networks. "Plus, Data Connection's reputation for longevity, product investment and great support ensure the ongoing quality level we require."
"We are very happy to be working with an innovative company like Palo Alto Networks," said Phil McConnell, General Manager of the Network Protocols Division. "There is a good match between our organizations and cultures - and we aim to be a responsive and supportive partner as their network protocol requirements expand."
