I am looking for a VPN solution for site-to-site connnection and remote access. The site-to-site is the Frame Relay connection. The remote access is through the Internet. Is it possible to use VPN over the Frame Relay? If so, which brand of VPN device should I use? Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks!

Frank,
First of all, the most common thing that people do here is to replace the Frame Relay with a VPN. What kind of applications/resources are you running over the Frame Relay that you'd like to run over a VPN?
Also, what kind of bandwidth do you have at the various sites?
Here are some other pertinent questions when deciding what kind of solution to put in place:
# sites?
# remote users?
existing routers/firewalls?
str ong authentication/username password?
current authentication system?

once you've answered these questions, we can start to narrow down the field of options.

cheers,Dr. VPNlabs staff
