11 SonicWALL VPN
SonicWALL VPN provides secure, encrypted communication to business partners
and remote offices at a fraction of the cost of dedicated leased lines. Using the
SonicWALL intuitive Web Management Interface, you can quickly create a VPN
Security Association to a remote site. Whenever data is intended for the remote
site, the SonicWALL automatically encrypts the data and sends it over the Internet
to the remote site, where it is decrypted and forwarded to the intended destination.
SonicWALL VPN is based on the industry-standard IPSec VPN implementation, so
it is interoperable with other VPN products, such as Check Point FireWall-1 and
Axent Raptor. Visit the VPN Center at <http://www.sonicwall.com/vpn-center/vpn-
setup.html> SonicWALL VPN is included with the SonicWALL TELE3, the
SonicWALL PRO 200 and the SonicWALL PRO 300. It can also be purchased as an
upgrade.
