Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The Avaya G250 Branch Office Media Gateway w/FIPS and G250-BRI Branch Media Gateway w/FIPS are complete branch office business communications systems that integrate an IP telephony gateway, an advanced IP WAN router, and a PoE LAN switch into a compact (2U) chassis. Ideally suited for enterprise with distributed branch office locations of 2-10 extensions, the G250 and G250-BRI Gateways replace the complexity and cost of managing disparate key and voice systems with a survivable networked solution that is easy to deploy and can be administered from a central location.
