concentrator routes VPN traffic across multiple remote sites without complex setting, thus
reduces the configuration overhead and the possibility of improper configuration. The VPN
concentrator is also a centralized management tool for administrators because all the traffic
sent between remote sites has to go through the central office first and administrators can set
up different access control rules. These are based on the source address, remote address, user
and schedule to enhance VPN security. To help to reduce network intrusion attacks,
administrators can configure the built-in IDP engine to inspect VPN traffic. For easy
troubleshooting and monitoring, the VPN concentrator logs and stores system information and
network status for further easy troubleshooting and analysis.
The VPN concentrator enhances the VPN routing ability and helps network administrators
in setting up a global VPN network with less effort but stronger security and management
possibilities.
