Most satellite modems offer built in TCP acceleration options heavily optimized for VSAT use and an encryption option (proprietary to their hardware only) which is probably your best bet. You can then use traditional encryption to your satellite provider (or take Ethernet handoff at the satellite earth station with co-located equipment, if appropriate). Otherwise, if this is not adequate you can use any traditional acceleration solution at the end sites, just check with the vendor for how optimized they are for your latency scenario. For various reasons, you're best not bonding. Just obtain a bigger space segment. It's literally scalable to at least ~35 megabit with ease by buying the appropriate sized pipe. Otherwise if you must bond I suggest you consider traditional ip routing mechanisms to do so on a per-flow basis. On Mon, Apr 30, 2012 at 3:42 AM, Rens <rens () autempspourmoi be> wrote:
Dear, Could anybody recommend any hardware that can build a VPN that works well over satellite connections? (TCP enhancements) I want to setup a L3 VPN between 2 satellite connections Even additionally if that hardware would also support WAN bonding even better because I also have a scenario to connect 2 times 2 satellites to have more capacity for my L3 VPN Regards, Rens
