Astaro Internet Security - Unified Threat Management Solutions.Site-to-Site VPN Configuration

Securely connect your company together.

No longer does making a VPN tunnel between two or more sites require an “information swap” by logging into each device and configuring parameters from the opposite end. This time-consuming, error prone method of configuring a tunnel gets exponentially more difficult for each site which must be part of the VPN network. Astaro Command Center makes building VPN tunnels easy, even if dozens of devices need to be connected.

Description & Screenshots

Site-to-Site VPN ConfigurationFrom entirely within the ACC GUI, sites can be connected in moments. Simply indicate the devices that you wish to connect together using encrypted tunnels, pick from a displayed list of choices for interfaces and networks, and watch as ACC effortlessly does all the work for you. The VPN capabilities of ACC can literally save administrators hours of configuration, troubleshooting and maintenance by not requiring the tedious, manual steps of logging into each device and trying to match every parameter perfectly.

Astaro Command Center also permits editing of tunnels if configuration requirements change, potentially saving more time and money, especially in larger deployments. IPSec VPN has never been easier, allowing the SMB customer to create and manage this crucial part of a multi-site company without the pitfalls and expenses of other methods of deployment and maintenance.

If you prefer an official Astaro platform, we offer four dedicated hardware appliance models to choose from depending on the amount of devices you wish to manage. Regardless of which one of our available ways you choose to run ACC, the features and functionality are identical.
