Sonicwall SSL
February 3rd, 2010
I was tasked with coming up with a solution to allow people to securely access our network. We did not want to have a client, so IPSEC VPNs were out. We currently use Cisco’s SSL VPN but were unhappy on how it operated. It is not very user friendly.
I was torn between using Sonicwall or Barracuda’s SSL VPN appliance for this task. Either would allow us to have a public web page which users would have to enter their credentials and have access to the network. We went with the Sonicwall due to price and features.
After some initial configuration headaches, I am really coming to enjoy working with this appliance. I wish that making bookmarks for services can be done at the server end; this would help when configuring new users.
