Remote Access Solution Guide
Hardware, Software and Security
More now than ever, modern-day problems require modern day solutions; remote work is now top of mind for every
organization. At Extreme, we are proud to connect our
customers, their customers, and communities regardless of
location. We know that it’s not easy to get connected and
stay connected, which is why we are helping thousands of
organizations, schools, and people access the essential tools
that they need to continue working, learning, and living.
Combining the very best of our technologies, we are offering
a variety of special remote network kits that helps to easily
extend the network beyond your office, school, or shop walls.
Remote Access solutions encompass the use of equipment at
the main headquarters (the head-end), equipment at the remote
sites (edge devices) and software to create a Virtual Private
Network (VPN) providing a secure connection, or tunnel
across the WAN and GRE tunnels. VPNs are a key component
of Extreme’s enterprise wide solution and as a result we offer
solutions for multiple use cases, the following chart defines
your options based on existing hardware and use cases:
To support these use cases Extreme offers multiple hardware
and software-based solutions providing scalable enterprise class VPN services for up to thousands of VPN tunnels to
secure communication to remote locations. These solutions
offer simplified provisioning, increased network resilience, end-to-end visibility and control, reduction in costs vs MPLS links
and most importantly, security. Not believing in a one size fits
all, Extreme offers multiple options based on number of remote
sites, existing onsite products and deployment complexity.
