Re: [SYSTEM21] System 21 & VPN

["Angus Appleby" <aappleby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jon

Funnily enough, we are about to go the other way, mainly due to the speed 
of our ADSL link, which we can only get running at 512Kb. We have linked 
two firewalls together to create a VPN between our distribution centre (in 
Essex) and our London Head Office. It works well, the line has been 
robust, with no apparent security problems. If we were to link in 
additional distribution centres, VPN is the way I would probably go.

Regards

Angus

Hi folks,

We're currently reviewing our communication links between our depots, 
which currently are connected via a dedicated private line.  The main 
alternative to this appears to be a VPN, does anybody else currently use a 

VPN to communicate between different sites and if so how secure is the 
solution.

regards


Jon
