WIDE AREA NETWORK ACCESS MANAGEMENT COMPUTER

摘要

A system and method for connecting a classified internet protocol (IP) network to a public IP network including an unclassified computing device. The unclassified computing device is a wide area network access management computer which directly connects to a National Security Agency (NSA) High Assurance Internet Protocol Encryptor (HAIPE) device and interfaces between the IP network and the classified IP network. The wide area network access management computer includes a graphical user interface, an internal data network communications interface, an external data network communications interface and a processing unit. The processing unit operates the network interfaces and presents information to the graphical user interface and interprets user input from the graphical user interface. The processing unit also performs the processing and protocols associated with the internal and external networks, performs client processing and allows the user to interact with services on any of the attached networks.
