The replacement device for Cisco for the Pix 501 is the ASA5505 on the next model up in the range is the ASA5510. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
SIM50 is correct though the Pix501 does support up to 10 vpn connections.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a remote campus connected via a VPN tunnel. &nbsp;My side has a VPN concentrator the other end has a PIX 501. &nbsp;They access my internal network via the tunnel (file server, Active Directory, etc..). &nbsp;Their regular internet traffic goes out via their local ISP.<br />
<br />
The remote campus is looking at having four smaller sites connect back to them to share files, video conferencing, Active Directory, and VOIP phones with something called a LyncServer. &nbsp;The remote campus and smaller sites are all in Alaska.<br />
<br />
I don't think the PIX 501 can support multiple tunnels but if they had a more robust device could an end point for a tunnel (our current config) have multiple tunnel extensions?<br />
<br />
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

VPN extension

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
