VPN Stress Test This Week
The IPSec VPN tunnel that was created between Pumas and HQ has been up for the past one week, allowing the basic ping to be run without trouble. The next step of discussion conclude issues pertaining to ensuring the extended network segment with the VPN link up to Pumas not posing a security threat.
The tunnel are now set to automatic connection (as opposed to previous week), whereby a router reset would only mean a temporary downtime for each VPN tunnel. Moreover, it is agreed that the VPN trial conducted this week is solely meant for the MK ERP client access to the server.
The new MK server has been delivered to HQ, awaiting proper configuration for the actual load test next week. Outstanding on the hardware department include an additional two-core processor and more harddrives to be delivered and added to the new MK server next week.
We understand the newly upgraded ADSL link is up and running and ready for updating in the Cisco 877 router.
