ABD8029-AC-PROFW

The most powerful Anybus Defender available — a rack-mounted, AC-powered industrial security appliance with 11 physical network segments and the complete PRO/FW feature set. The Defender 8029 is purpose-built for server room and control room deployments where 19" rack infrastructure and AC power are standard.

9x Gigabit LAN Ethernet ports plus 2x SFP for fiber optic or additional RJ45 connectivity, with VLAN support for virtually unlimited logical segmentation. Full PRO/FW capabilities: Deep Packet Inspection on Ethernet/IP CIP and Modbus with auto-learn, virtual patching via Snort and Suricata IPS, advanced VPN (WireGuard, OpenSSL, IPsec), RADIUS/LDAP/AD authentication, DHCP server, policy scheduling, captive portal, advanced routing (RIP, BGP), load balancing with multi-WAN, traffic shaping and high availability redundancy.

Designed for large-scale OT-SDWAN deployments, multi-site plant connectivity and critical infrastructure environments. Configuration via web GUI, RESTful API and CLI. Optional central management via the Anybus Cybersecurity Console.

How it works

1
Install
Mount in a 19" rack, connect AC power, WAN, up to 9 LAN segments and 2 SFP fiber or RJ45 uplinks
2
Discover & learn
Asset scanner maps every OT device across all 11 segments. DPI auto-learns traffic patterns and suggests rules
3
Configure
Set up DPI policies, VPN tunnels, HA failover, traffic shaping and routing via web GUI — or manage centrally via the Console
4
Enforce & monitor
Full protection active: DPI, IPS, VPN, HA, traffic shaping and load balancing across all 11 segments with real-time notifications
