Virtual Private Networks
Requirement: Today's
fast-changing business
environment demands network
connectivity between
everyone in the company,
even if they are located in
remote offices. Using the
Internet rather than
dedicated private lines or
frame relay offers
significant cost savings but
risks information being read
by unauthorized people in
the middle. The most common
solution to this problem is
to implement a Virtual
Private Network (VPN)
between remote locations to
provide secure, private
communications between each
location, using inexpensive
Internet links to connect
them.
VPN Definition: An
encrypted or encapsulated
communication process that
transfers data from one
point to another point
securely. The security of
that data is assured by
robust encryption technology
even though the data passes
through an open, unsecured,
routed network.
Solution: Arafura
Connect has
selected Netgear as the best
technology to offer our
customers. These hardware
products use Ethernet
connections, making them
router independent.
Telecommuters, very small
offices and travellers can
use an inexpensive
software-only solution on a
single machine which is ISP
independent.

performance of 100 Mbps
while handling 128,000
simultaneous TCP connections
and 1,000 IPSec tunnels with

throughput. The appliance
takes up a mere 1U of rack
space. For environments
where high availability is
critical, two devices may be
used to provide fail-over
functionality. |
Account requirements:
Each location that offers
services (e.g. file servers
and printers) will require a
DSL connection plus a static
IP address. Remote offices
acting as clients may use a
dynamic IP address.
