   Corbin O'Reilly to All   
   Need VPN advice for connecting two offic

   From: corbinoreilly@bellsouth.net   
      
   Hello. I have a client that currently uses a Cisco VPN 3005 concentrator.   
   Remote employees use the Cisco VPN client to connect to the concentrator and   
   access servers on the company's LAN. They have been using this setup for   
   many years and it works great. My client has recently purchased another   
   company 3,000 miles away. This second company accesses the Internet via DSL   
   and does have a range of available public IPs. They currently have no remote   
   employees but that will soon change. My client would like to setup a VPN   
   solution at the second company that is similar to the parent company. They   
   will be adding remote employees and want those remote employees to be able   
   to VPN in just like the parent company's employees do. Also, in the near   
   future, they would like to do a site-to-site VPN between the two companies.   
   They have not bought Cisco VPN hardware in many years so my primary question   
   is what should they purchase for the second company. Like I said earlier   
   they want to accomplish two things:   
      
   1. Remote employees of the second company should be able to VPN in and   
   access servers on the second company's network.   
   2. The new Cisco VPN appliance in the second office will need to be linked   
   to the current Cisco 3005 VPN concentrator at the parent company.   
      
   Could someone please give me some advice on what Cisco appliance to purchase   
   in order to accomplish this? The second company will consist of about 20   
   employees and a few remote employees.   
   Thanks for the help.
