multiple simultaneus VPN connections

[ryrae]

I am setting up a remote site that will VPN into our corporate office via the microsoft VPN client. There will only be 5-10 users in this office at any one time. I am looking for a switch/router that will allow multiple simultaneus VPN connections so everyone in the office can be connected at the same time. what would be the best bet for this type of device...so far I have found the follwing, but I wanted to know if anyone else has found anything.

What are you using as the VPN server?

I have 2 sites that do that now, we use Netgear FVS318 router. One at the site and one at server location using a point to point VPN tunnel. Works great and not too costly. You will need how ever is a static IP at each site.

Any Cisco router with the right IOS will do what you want, and THEN some, I.E. firewall configs, etc. I have a C837 at home as my dsl router, and I have it set up for 10 simultaneous VPN connections, and it is also configured as a firewall, VPN server, dhcp server NATs to my FTP server, handles the PPPoE authentication to my ISP RADIUS server, and IDS (Intrusion Detection Switch). I got it off of Ebay for $150 a year ago---it also has a 4 port switch module built in, which will handle VLAN configs.

Tell us what you did for your solution.

We use w2k3 rras to connect 9 remote sites to our main office simultaneously plus we support dial-in from our staff at their homes.
