Hello,
Perhaps the Nokia CryptoCluster series is a scalable fit. This is a nice
IPsec hardware solution that is separate from the FW. I've worked in
situations in the past where this is the perfect fit for a site to site
solution. The only downfall is Nokia will only support them for 5 years,
which is still an ample amount of time for migration (if needed). I have
more information about CryptoCluster if you need it.
Another excellent solution is VTCP based VPN called VSgate by InfoExpress.
It installed on i386 system and does not have the limitations that IPsec
solutions sometimes have. Here is a link for more info

Subject: [vpn] vpn planning
Hi, I'm planning to install a vpn so that two of our locations can share
the same database,and access each other's local network shares. I had
planned to use free s/wan with a linux firewall like ipchains for this,
setting up a NAT with firewalling rules,then setting up the vpn on that
machine. After doing some reading, I see that there's probably more to
it. For example,do I need some kind of Windows vpn client for the windows
workstations? Is there anyway to make the vpn transparent to the
user,such
that any traffic to the remote LAN is automatically routed through the
vpn?
What are some general recommendations,as in what software should I use,
how
to integrate firewalling into a vpn solution, sample hardware and software
setups? Thanks for any info, pointers etc yall can provide! Steve
