Cisco VPN Router around 10 users?

[Sone]

Need to spec a cisco kit for around 10 concurrent vpn users, will a 2801 (with security bundle) do the job or is it under / over specced?

Budget is just little as possible, but if i need to spend money is there

The 2801 is an ISR (Intergrated services router) which depending on your needs could be classed as overkill.

If you do require routing as well as vpn functionality the Pix will do this for you also and wont have a lot of overhead.

A Cisco Pix 501 supports upto 10 concurrent Vpn users

Cleartext throughput: Up to 60 Mbps
Concurrent connections: 7,500
56-bit DES IPsec VPN throughput: Up to 6 Mbps
168-bit 3DES IPsec VPN throughput: Up to 3 Mbps
128-bit AES IPsec VPN throughput: Up to 4.5 Mbps
Simultaneous VPN peers: 10

If you need more bandwidth or if there is a need to expand in the future

The Cisco Pix 506

Cleartext throughput: Up to 100 Mbps
Concurrent connections: 25,000
56-bit DES IPSec VPN throughput: Up to 20 Mbps
168-bit 3DES IPSec VPN throughput: Up to 16 Mbps
128-bit AES IPSec VPN throughput: Up to 30 Mbps
256-bit AES IPSec VPN throughput: Up to 25 Mbps
Simultaneous VPN peers: 25

Or to bring it back to routers the 87x series support upto 10 VPNs.

needs to support over 10 just incase, very rarely will there be more than 10 concurrent users but it is possible.

Looks like a 506 could do the job, i will have to habe good look at one
