I have used Sofaware appliances and CheckPoint VPN-1 in the past, but I am now catching up on the latest offering and I have many questions.

1. Where happened to the Safe@Home product line?

2. Do I have to install a PKCS#12 certificate on the Safe@Office 500 in order to setup a VPN on the Safe@Office 500?

3. Is PKCS#12 support mandatory in a non-SecuRemote VPN client to connect to a Safe@Office 500 VPN?

4. Is L2TP support mandatory in a non-SecuRemote VPN client to connect to a Safe@Office 500 VPN?

5. Can the Windows 2000/XP SecuRemote NG FP3 Build 53515 client that I am currently using connect to a Safe@Office 500 VPN? Or would I have to upgrade to the latest NGX SecuRemote client?

6. I have the MovianVPN 4.00 client for PalmOS 5 installed on a Treo 700p. I can successfully connect to my home S-Box 3.x VPN, but I am unable to connect to my work's CheckPoint Linux VPN-1 NG FP3 VPN due to an unsolvable IKE aggressive mode issue. Will I be able to connect to a Safe@Office 500 VPN with this MovianVPN client, even if it does not support L2TP and PKCS#12? Do you know of any Palm based IPSEC client that successfully connects to a Safe@Office 500 VPN?

Thanks.

Hello,

1) It was discontinued in favor of the Safe@Office series.
2) Yes - on the 500 model you can click
on install and generate a certificate via
the web interface (GUI).
3) The certificate is mandatory for any VPN session.
4) L2TP is an alternative method of establishing a remote access vpn to the safe@office (supported from firmware version 6.5 and above).
5) Upgrade is recommended.
6) I cannot reply on 3rd party appliances/software and it's abilitys to connect with our appliance.
The Safe@Office remote access vpn feature is currently supported via SecureRemote/Client and/or L2TP (from firmware 6.5 and above);
For site to site vpn the Safe@Office implements the IPsec protocol.
