Salient advantages: a) Can use key based logins to secure site-site VPNs. b) Works on UDP and is completely NAT friendly for negotiated port applications. No ALGs needed. c) Works well for both Road Warrior and Site-Site VPNs. d) Well supported on various OSes. Way better than IPSec for ease of installation, support/maintenance and supporting variety of client OSes. -- Mohan Sundaram _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
