i was wondering if any of you have found limitations to the number of simultaneous ipsec connections through soekris net4801s. i have one of the 4801-50s with 128 mb ram and no vpn accelerator card, and it seems to handle at least a couple of connections just fine.
is the processor more of a limiting factor when dealing with the crypto? would use of the vpn1411 card improve performance appreciably? would it be reasonable to use the 4801-60 (256 mb ram) in situations that may require > 8 or so simultaneous ipsec connections? i'm talking mobile users here, too, not point to point tunnels.
thanks for any feedback.
