We use a VPN tunnel as the primary connection between our main office in Cincinnati and a manufacturing facility in Northern Michigan. After getting the correct firmware updates to the firewalls, the connection works very well. It it much faster and less expensive than the frame relay we had before. Fell free to call with any questions. Tony Kleier Senior Systems Analyst Robbins, Inc. 513.619.5957 TLuce@xxxxxxxx Sent by: bpcs-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx 10/08/2003 12:34 PM Please respond to "SSA's BPCS ERP System" <bpcs-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To bpcs-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx cc Subject AS/400 Connectivity from Remote Sites We are evaluating going with a VPN solution rather than our current frame solution for connectivity of our remote sites. The cost is dramatically lower (thousands per month!), but the big question is reliability. We are running BPCS versions 4.05 CD, 6.02, 6.04, and 6.1.02. Three of these environments are already centralized onto one AS/400, the remaining two will be migrated within the next 6 months. Note: the sites would be throughout the US plus Toronto CAN and Monterrey MEX. Is anyone successfully using a VPN solution for remote connectivity while utilizing Client Access for green screen? What were your experiences? Has anyone tried this and failed - if so, what were the issues that caused this solution not to work? I look forward to your responses - thanks! Timothy C.
