Gig Throughput on IPSEC

On second thoughts, thinking about this I am probably looking for some
kind of Layer2 encryption devices. This will make things a lot easier
for the deployment. Any experiences, thoughts on these types of devices,
would be much appreciated.

Hi,

I have a requirement to encrypt data using IPSEC over a p-t-p gig fibre
link. In the past I've normally used Juniper to terminate VPNs, as I
have found them excellent devices and the route based VPN functionality
very useful. However looking at their range, only the ISG will do a gig
of IPSEC. I'm leaning towards keeping my exising Juniper SSG550's for
firewall/routing capability at each site. Then having a separate
encryption devices to handle the site-to-site vpn requiring the gig
throughput. Does anyone have any suggestions on devices to use?

You can run L2TPv3 (available on IOS routers) between sites, not sure
about the throughput though.

You could use OpenVPN, but that would be cheating. :sunglasses:
