Sorry if I missed it somewhere along the way, but is anybody willing to share a link to their high-level requirements and cost-benefit analysis for investing in an enterprise vpn (projected benefits weighed against round numbers for costs in HW, SW, scaling issues, and support)?
We setup our VPN mostly because we were going to close off the NetBIOS ports and needed a way for people to be able to use them from off-campus (like for Exchange, mounting shares from home, etc). We didn't do much in the way of requirements or cost-benefit analysis because we knew we needed to do it. We tried one other brand of VPN concentrator but it could not authenticate users to our Kerberos server, and would not be able to in time for us to fully test it, so we went with Cisco (which we setup to use a modified RADIUS server to authenticate to Kerberos).
