Cisco VPN - supported platforms
Hi everybody,
I am researching VPN options for my company that would allow us to connect our branch office with another branch. From what I saw VPN can be configured on Cisco Routers and Cisco PIX and ASA firewalls (this does not seem to be possible on any switch platform - right?)
What are the advantages of configuring the VPN on a firewall vs a router then (or the other way around)? Would I gain anything by doing it on a firewall rather than router (or vice versa)? What is the recommended approach?
Can the VPN be configured on a firewall if the other site terminates it on a router? Does it make any difference?
Thanks, AL
