RE: SSL VPN

["Beauford, Jason" <jbeauford () EightInOnePet com>]

Here we are using a Juniper SA1000 for our SSL VPN Solution.  They have
really made some nice advancements in the technology.  If you recall the
NEOTERIS group, they were one of the pioneer's in the SSLVPN industry.
Juniper purchased them and are using that technology.  It works quite
well for us.

Because SSL VPN technology is so hot right now, vendors are able to
command quite a large cost for their appliances.  If you are looking for
something in the Open Source arena (to save some $$) check out SSL
Explorer http://sourceforge.net/projects/sslexplorer/.  It works quite
well with similar functionality as the big name appliances.  There is a
nice support forum as well.

Good Luck.
