LINKSYS ROUTER INFO

A linksys router is a Network Address Translation Device (NAT). It is not a True Firewall, but it has some properties of a firewall.

1)it provides a non-internet accessible internal network. In other words if you dont have a NAT device, and you are plugged in directly to the DSL or Cable Modem, your computer is accessble to anyone on the internet.

2) The Linksys NAT device acts as a “Firewall” in the sense that it hides you on a private network. The only thing that is accessible to the internet is the Linksys. It also has features that allow you to foward requests of your choosing to pass through. IE POLLING uses port 20000, unless you open these ports the request is denied giving you protection. Common programs we will setup to pass through is PCA, VNC polling.

3) it is also a Switch as well and acts as a DHCP server. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocal. the router will set up all the appropriate TCP/IP settings to get on the internet.

4) It also allows all machines on the network to share 1 safe internet connection.

Sandy Malaney

Upon graduating with a degree in business from California State University, Sacramento, Sandy Malaney accepted a sales position from Lanier Business Products. She found her stride in outside sales, becoming Lanier’s top producer in their telecommunications division.

In 1988, Malaney joined Checkpoint Systems, selling security systems to retail companies. Malaney gained valuable information about the retail sector that would eventually lead her to her next career at a startup called Retail Technologies, Inc. (RTI) in 1990.

As vice president of sales and marketing, Malaney focused on sales, brand marketing, and expanding product line. (Today Retail Technologies is known as Retail Pro International (RPI), and is headquartered in Folsom, CA.)

Then in 1993, RTI eliminated its sales division to focus solely on software development. Sandy and her husband Mick seized the opportunity to open a software distributorship that included selling and supporting RTI’s point of sale and inventory management solution—Retail Pro.

The Malaneys didn’t need to look far for a business name. “Big Hairy Dog” described the family dog, Molly, an Old English Sheep Dog. Today, pups Dugan Finnegan and Paisley Rose continue to dutifully represent the family business.

Sandy Malaney’s varied experiences in business and in life prepared her for the rigors of owning a small technology firm. Celebrating 27 years (or—189 dog years) of success, Big Hairy Dog continues to expand in the retail market place, while providing an award-winning help desk to customers worldwide.
