Cisco equipment was used to organize interaction along VPN (Virtual Private Network) channel.
The first stage of the project included installation and configuration of firewall screen in the central office in Moscow. The interaction between office in Moscow, Kaluga and Tolstopaltsevo was tested. The firewall Cisco PIX was selected as a device terminating the VPN-channels in the central office.
