There is the Cisco VPN Concentrator Series, or OSS if you prefer the free variety (and you do not mind doing a little work getting it going). I have had good luck with the Cisco equipment.

I used to love the redcreek dedicated vpn devices (before they were acquired by SonicWall). These days, seems that all VPN services are either on a firewall or router box, and I favor architectures which don't really use VPN on either. Still stuck on the idea of being able to run and manage VPN separately, and grouping this functionality on a firewall or router device muddies the administration for clients, and adds unnecessary functionality, especially for clients with restricted technical resources. Additionally, I don't really like compromising on VPN functionality or firewall functionality, and multipurpose boxes seem to require either that, or an excessively high cost. Thanks for any suggestions, JB. _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizardsat_private http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizardsat_private http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
