The system provides a B-level Ethernet interface; ie, the Verdix Secure LAN (VSLAN) provides secure access control (between different classification levels); it does not provide confidentiality. For confidentiality you must either secure the LAN physically or use encryption such as the Xerox Encryption Unit. Regards - Craig
