prevention of IP spoofing

Hi,

I need a router that will conform with the requirements of my card machine providers security team.
I need a firewall, this is standard on routers now.  I need WPA2.  This i have set up.

What i do not know about is the anti IP spooofing ability.

Is it something that a router can manage?  if so which one?  or do i need to run sofftware (which is the right software - i run macs and windows 8.

My ISP, who provided the basic modem does not know anything about this so they are a buch of no help!

Any suggestons please.

Yours

Richard

    Hi RichardSo,

     

    Welcome to the community! :) 

     

    It seems that you would need a firewall with comprehensive security features like the ProSECURE Unified Threat Management (UTM) appliance.  The ProSECURE UTM product line is already End-of-Life (EOL).  I am just giving you an idea as a basis of what you should require that would fit your network security needs.  

     

    If ever you are curious about ProSECURE UTM product line, you can access this link.  Again, use this as your basis in looking for the right firewall for your network.
