My client is going to have 4 locations connected via routers
preconfigured by AT&T (managed) over T1, and at the home location
another T1 providing internet access to all four sites. I will need to
install a hardware firewall solution and setup VPN for off site
personnel.
My plan is to setup their Windows 2000 Server to handle the incoming
VPN connections, therefore I simply need a firewall solution that
allows for VPN passthrough. It seems like something as simple as a
consumer level router/firewall, like a Netgear or Linksys device, would
be sufficient, but I don't know if there is a limit to the number of
VPN connections that could be passed through. The client says that in
the future they may have the need for 8 or more simultaneous VPN
connections, but I don't know if that will even be an issue for VPN
passthrough.
Does anyone have some good advice for an inexpensive product that will
handle what I need it to do? Do I even need to worry about
simultaneous connections if I'm just enabling passthrough and the
server actually handles the connections?
