126398 2003-03-07 10:01:00 Hi All,
does anybody know what kind of ADSL router will support Multiple Nortel Vpn connections on the client side, to explain alittle better I have 30 client pc's each loaded with Nortel's VPN client software, I would like each of those client to have the ability to connect to a VPN server located else where. I have a high speed ADSL connection ie- jetstream however I am unsure as to what router to use. I have contacted dynalink, they have advised that there routers only support a single VPN connection. I have also tried forms of transpart proxies, best I have been able to get is 3 clients connected at the same time. Any ideas?

126399 2003-03-07 19:53:00 hmmmm is there another way to acheive the result? Can it be structured in some way that all the vpn traffic is directed through 1 server on the client end? (I'm presuming they all connect to the same VPN server) Don't know much about it, but could be possible. wotz (335)

Surely, you have a local network, which needs a single VPN to the server. Will a proxy server do it? I think you need a bit more planning.

126401 2003-03-09 00:58:00 I would suggest a single hardware VPN unit and put all the clients behind it. A product such as a Sonicwall Pro would support both internet access and access to the VPN simultaniously, assuming the Nortel VPN is a standard IPSEC VPN. This question was asked a while back, are you the same person? BIFF (1)
