Avaya IP Office IPSEC VPN - (v. R10+) - license - 1 designated system

Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have evolved from the growing needs of businesses for more wide area network connectivity. This need has been driven by a combination of technological progress and changing trends in work habits and work environments. The VPN capability in Avaya's IP Office gives small and medium sized businesses a cost-effective alternative to private leased line or Frame Relay (FR) services for interconnecting sites. It also allows Small Medium Businesses (SMBs) to avoid the high costs associated with teleworkers and the mobile workforce using Remote Access Servers (RAS). Instead they can leverage the ubiquity and low cost of the public Internet.IP Office VPN is implemented as a customer premises based VPN, by far the most common method adopted amongst SMBs. VPN capability is integrated into the IP Office server delivering a single box solution, with the ease of common management, and lower total cost of ownership than a multi-box solution.
