RE: Requesting info: VPN solution

["Keenan Smith" <kc_smith () clark net>]

One low-maintenance solution: have both VPN into a location that allows
them to terminate in the same router then create a VLAN having those
only those two nodes as members.

There's lots of ways to accomplish what you need, this way may be able
to use existing hardware, reducing any future maintenance to what you
already need to do.

I hope that's helps.

Good afternoon list,



Yet again, it's time for me to pick your brain...  I've been asked to
develop a VPN solution that will require little to no maintenance.



Project Goal: Connect two computers, on two public networks, to secure
data transfers between the two.  Ex: Offsite backup.



If anyone can recommend any hardware solutions that would establish a
secure connection...  I was looking into Cisco 1712 series...



The sky is the limit on this one, and I've been given a fairly
reasonable budget...



I've never setup anything like this before, so I'm open to any, and all
suggestions...



Thank you,

Nick Diotte
