What's Inside an IronPort M1000?
Each IronPort M1000 appliance can host a number of unique security management features, available from IronPort® to ease administrator workload. Centralized reporting is another exclusive feature - allowing for consolidation of traffic data from multiple email and Web security appliances to provide fully integrated security reporting across all protocols.
