Re: The VPN question

["Bradley, Stephen W. Mr." <bradlesw () MUOHIO EDU>]

I have a question about the your VPNs.  Why so many roles?

I can see maybe ten but 100, 300?  That seems to me to be a lot of roles to care and feed.

I'll echo what Steven said: Pulse for us (at least on iOS) seems to work just fine to provide Network Connect 
functionality on those devices.  We're still on 6.5 software now (just over 100 roles here), but we are planning on 
upgrading to 7.1 in the next few weeks.
