Included Services

The FirstServed Server Housing is more then just a "cable to the Internet". Our Server Housing service includes a total package of services that make the management of your own server an easy job. A lot of facilities that would require an extra fee at other suppliers come standard at FirstServed.

Tailor-made firewall settings

Your server is secured by our two redundant Cisco ASA firewalls. Based on your needs and wishes we will configure the access to your server completely based on your demands.

Secured VPN access to the FirsServed network

For administrative access to your server (management by using Remote Desktop or SSH) we offer the added security of a Virtual Private Network connection. You choose which server applications are publically available and which applications will only be available by using a secure connection.

Blazing fast internet access

Your server will be placed in the Level(3) data centre in Brussels. You will dispose of super fast connections to the main Internet Service Providers and network operators.

2 Gigabit uplinks per server

Each Dedicated Server comes with 2 Gigabit network interface cards as standard, both redundantly connected to our Cisco Catalyst switches. With this setup, your server will enjoy the blazing fast FirstServed Gigabit network, and remain reachable in case a network card becomes unavailable.

24/7 Networkmonitoring

The most important software on your server (website, mailserver, ...) is being monitored by the FirstServed monitoring system on a 24/7 basis. Our support staff will be warned instantly in case of trouble.

Reports and statistics

Our customer selfcare website allows you to retrieve reports and charts of your data traffic during a specific period. The internal connectivity of your server is also monitored, so you may see whether your server experienced downtime or not.
