A Virtual Private Network ("VPN") is a way to connect to a company network securely over the Internet. We offer a stable Linux VPN solution that can accommodate almost any configuration or form of connectivity including dial-up, 3G, iBurst, ADSL, Diginet or GPRS, tried and tested as one of the most stable VPN solutions on the South African market with fully featured SSL functionality for complete peace of mind, making it Easy, Scalable, Reliable, Stable and Secure.  We provide 3 solutions that will cater for almost any configuration or budget.   

 

1. Branch to branch router based:

This solution is used to connect 2 or 3 branches/sites using 2 linux based routers. A Linux based VPN router is set up on either side of the network so that data flows seamlessly between the 2 branches/sites. Ideally for ADSL to ADSL VPNS. The cost is a once off installation and the only monthly cost is from your ISP(data bundles)

Cost is R3000 per connecting branch, once off. Hardware included. excludes travel.

 

2.Server/client solution, PC based:

This solution is used to allow users working offsite or from home to access company resources. This can be file sharing, mail, Pastel or whatever is only available at the office. A Linux based PC/server is set up on the network that needs to be accessed. A VPN Client (small piece of software) is installed on any PC/laptop that needs to gain access to the company resources. The connecting clients can run on any form of connectivity including Iburst, ADSL, Diginet, or 3g, Windows ,Linux or Mac.
