Firewalla AP7 and Firewalla Router bring the power of Zero Trust security to your home or business network Segmentation and Microsegmentation: Divide your network into smaller segments to limit the lateral movement of threats. Least Privilege Access: Grant users and devices only the minimum access necessary to perform their functions on the Network. Continuous Monitoring: Continuously monitor and verify the security posture of all users and devices. Microsegmentation with VqLAN Firewalla VqLAN offers simplified network segmentation by dividing a network into smaller, isolated segments to limit the spread of threats without requiring network-wide changes. If you already have groups defined, you just need to turn VqLAN on. Personal Key Assign different personal keys (PPSK va WPA2) to the same SSID to identify users. Devices logging in with a specific key will be assigned to the configured user,group or VLAN network, ensuring user identification and rule enforcement (even if the user’s MAC address is randomized). Example: You can assign a personal key to your child, and any devices your child uses will be automatically quarantined to the “Kid” user group. Even if the device’s MAC address randomizes, you will always be able to group devices. Map the SSID and Personal key to a VLAN. Create a separate network for IoT devices and another VLAN network for guests, all using the same SSID (Dynamic VLAN). Device Isolation Support Completely isolate any of your devices from your home network. Perfect for guests and devices that don't need to talk to each other on your LAN network. This will complement the existing Firewalla network quarantine and guest network feature. Rule-Based Least Privilege Access Zero Trust Networks should never fully trust any devices on the network. After your network is segmented and isolated, you can use Firewalla Rules or Policies to grant the device only the minimum permissions needed to reduce security risks. Monitoring Firewalla provides full network visibility by monitoring traffic and identifying who’s on your network, their activity, and potential security risks. With Firewalla AP7, we extend this capability to your LAN, giving you full visibility into how your devices communicate within your local network.

Network segmentation divides your network into regions with dynamic and static policies/rules. Create a network segment for kids and employees with their own rules and policies. You can limit access to the internet, filter activities, and more. Isolate critical devices into their own network. Only permit devices like security cameras to talk to their own network. Create a secure guest network, in order to apply a high level of protection to your guests, and manage their activities in real-time. Segment Lockdown Actively quarantine any device and restrict its behavior on the network. This feature works by blocking all traffic to and from any network segment, only allow selective sites or activities. New devices connecting to the network will need approval Only allow school sites to be accessed Only allow access to the company network and email In addition to the traditional Simple and DHCP modes, Firewalla Gold includes a third “Router” mode. You now have the option to do a plug and play install complementing your current network or redesign your network with the Firewalla Gold as the main router using our mobile app. Firewalla Gold is a software-based router, managed by the same intuitive Firewalla app. It has the capability to identify and shape your network based on rules you define, right at your fingertips. VLAN Support Static Routing PPPoE PPPoE over VLAN Triple Play Support DHCP Static IP Multi-WAN Multi-WAN Faster and more stable internet! Fully utilize two internet connections together, either in load balancing mode or failover modes. Content and Policy Based Routing, route any traffic to any WAN connection. Link Aggregation Bundling individual ethernet links together as one single logical link. Achieve speeds beyond gigabit, provide load balancing, and link redundancy at the link layer. Transparently bridge two networks together by inserting Firewalla Gold in the middle; Firewalla can be installed with most routers in Simple Mode (plug and play mode) without changing existing wiring, around 5 min. In case you have multiple routers, you will be able to use the advanced simple mode to have the same Firewalla Gold monitor and manage multiple routers on your network.

- [Firewalla Wi-Fi SD](/content/products/firewalla-wi-fi-sd/index.html): The Firewalla WiFi SD can be used in conjunction with the Firewalla Gold to enable you to tether to your phone (or another WiFi hotspot) when your main network is down, and have the Firewalla Multi-WAN support automatically swap your primary internet (and automatically swap back once your primary internet is up). Features & Specifications Use your mobile phone's hotspot as a backup internet when your main network is down. This adapter can also be a short-distance access point (for up to 5 clients). Great to temporarily back your LAN if your AP/WiFi is down. The WiFi Access Point function will likely be much weaker than your normal router/AP.
