Review: Aventail ST2

Setup for the Aventail ST2 is simple. You just have to configure the interface through a console connection and you can access the web-based setup wizard. This is easy to follow and guides you through the creation of the administrator account.

Review: Connectra

Review: Connectra

Check Point's appliance allows for both web- and network-based SSL connections via a web browser. It allows users to access information through its own, customisable web portal. The range of applications users can access include web-based applications and resources, shared files and email. The Connectra also incorporates its own intrusion prevention system, which provides extra security.

Review: Array SPX 5000

Review: Array SPX 5000

Array’s SPX5000 is a fully-featured appliance, with a superb set of VPN features. But it took some time to establish that, as the setup process was challenging. It started with a CLI network setup, complete with out-of-date documentation.

Review: Aventail Smart SSL VPN

Review: Aventail Smart SSL VPN

Aventail has one of the best-organized web management GUIs we have used. A startup wizard got us going via the console port, although there was a brief delay when the documentation left the ‘s’ out of https, leaving us unable to connect.

Review: Base5

Review: Base5

Permeo’s Base5 is a RedHat-based solution that turns a standard server into an SSL VPN. Obviously, this means you need to supply your own server, and you will need to check the hardware support – our first attempt to install the software crashed anaconda (RedHat’s installer) in its usual ugly way.

Review: Nokia Secure Access System

Review: Nokia Secure Access System

This is not actually an SSL VPN, but a network security platform (IP300) on which you can then run other services – like an SSL VPN.

Review: PortWise SSL VPN

Review: PortWise SSL VPN

PortWise 4.0 is a software solution, although we received it preconfigured on a Sun V20z running RedHat ES. We might have been better off setting it up ourselves: we had to log in to a root shell to get the network configured, and while the documentation is great for setting up actual SSL VPN services, it was not much use at the outset.

IPsec and SSL VPNs are able to co-exist

The combined weight of many marketing machines is trying to persuade us that SSL VPNs will soon replace the old methods of encrypting data, but Mike Smart believes there is still an argument for traditional IPsec VPNs
