Dear Peplink team,
as I am sure it is the case with many Peplink users and resellers, I am getting more and more requests from my client to beef up Cybersecurtiy and include IPS/IDS solutions that monitor the whole networktraffic.
When making full use of the Multi Wan, Multi Site + Fusionhub eco system that can present a big challenge. While the 310x has a small checkbox under advanced that allows to enable IPS/IDS this is very low end.
Are there plans to include a more robust features for IPS/IDS in the near future?
According to my research, existing Peplink firmware already use Suricata as an underlying engine, so it would be awesome to get the option to load rulesets and extend the setup.
Having all this in one device makes things much easier, instead of having to route out traffic to standalone firewall/IPS Systems. This might get clients to chose a stronger (and more expensive) Peplink device to have it all in one!
It would also be great to have these options in the fusionhub, as it acts as main gateway in most cases and also runs on scalable hardware normally.
Best
Mervyn Lange
