Hi all,
It may not be CCIE related question. But I think this is a good one for
network design solution. My company has VPN provided by Nortel which
currently has around 400 user licenses and we are looking for backup
solution for VPN for around 16 people mainly for admins. That means, if
our VPN gateway or T1 circuit to VPN fails, then we need sort of mechanism
which will allow people to dial in and connected to our network remotely.
Well, it's not only connect to our network devices, but also network
drives. And our budget is tight for this year, so we may only spend less
than $500 per month for the backup solution for VPN. ISDN may not be an
option since it's too pricey for around 16 people. Someone from Cisco
suggested get 16 Async-port module since we already have some spare 2600
routers. But I assume, that kind of module will only allow me to dial in
remotely and manage routers and switches, but not able to get into our
network drives. I will appreciate it if someone can share their thoughts
or experience. Thanks.
