so if I wanted a cheap routing device that could bridge multiple networks via vpn/pptp connections, would mikrotik be what I'm looking for? edit : I mean that can act as a client for multiple vpns or whatever. I feel like I'm being confusing in my wording. I'm probably not. I'm going to stop typing. mindphlux fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Jan 10, 2012 |

CuddleChunks posted:VPN setup is a little fiddly from what I remember but not too terrible. How much bandwidth do you want to push through the tunnels? These units don't have VPN accelerator hardware which keeps them cheap but if you are looking for gigabit throughput then you should look elsewhere. Not too much. I have a couple clients I do work for where I have to mess with couple hundred meg files, but honestly their office only has a T-1, so that's pretty much the limiting factor there. I mainly want to use it to monitor devices on networks and do simple SMB sharing for small documents and stuff. I have about 12 clients in total, so it'd be cool to be able to set up like I dunno, thedude or something to just get an overall picture of what's going on with every site. right now I'm using a "cloud based" "remote monitoring and management" software from GFI to keep track of devices, but I have to pay per device and I'm not really happy with how it handles things, so was thinking about just setting up a bunch of VPNS and doing it all myself.
