Agile Performance Enhancing Proxy (PEP) Software 

Improve Performance over Disadvantaged Networks

To increase network availability and accelerate performance in disadvantaged networks, the TACLANE-Nano includes the Agile Performance Enhancing Proxy (PEP) software feature. The TACLANE Agile PEP function works by hosting a specialized version of TCP resulting in better performance than an end-to-end standard TCP. Integrating this technology eliminates the need for external PEP devices. When the Agile PEP function is enabled, it uniquely provides simultaneous support for concurrent TACLANE Agile PEP, Standard TCP connections and all HAIPE traffic types on a per packet basis. To learn more about the Agile PEP software feature, request our whitepaper.

Render Useless Zeroize (RUZ)

Unattended Operations Security

The Render Useless Zeroize (RUZ) feature provides a fast, simple way to make the TACLANE inoperable and inaccessible by eliminating Critical Security Parameters like cryptographic keys and algorithms. Once the device is rendered useless, adversaries cannot access information, reconfigure or operate the device. This is ideal for unattended operations and other high risk, hostile environments that are susceptible to overrun or unplanned leave behind. To learn more about the TACLANE RUZ feature, request our whitepaper.

Agile Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)

Agile Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) adds Layer 2 VLAN tagged/ Non-IP Ethernet capability to the TACLANE encryptor enabling simultaneous HAIPE and Layer 2 traffic on a per packet basis without any infrastructure changes. TACLANE encryptors enabled with VLAN still interoperate with standard HAIPE encryptors. Other benefits include: equipment and cost savings, increased bandwidth efficiency, failover and redundancy.

It is important for users to ensure their TACLANE-based security solutions are integrated and used with approved ancillary equipment to comply with mission requirements. By using ancillary equipment that has been tested and validated by General Dynamics for use with TACLANE devices reduces risks associated with interoperability, redundancy, environmental factors and even warranty coverage. Please refer to the TACLANE Approved Products List (APL) for a complete list of tested and approved ancillary items available for purchase and supported by General Dynamics. If you have a requirement for an item that is not listed, please contact us.
