2.3 High and Low Bandwidth SSL VPNs

Novell SSL VPN comes in high and low bandwidth versions.

Low Bandwidth Version: The default SSL VPN server is a low bandwidth version. It is restricted to 249 simultaneous user connections and a transfer rate of 44 Mbits per second because of export restrictions.

High Bandwidth Version: The high bandwidth version does not have the connection and performance restrictions. It is also essential to have the high bandwidth SSL VPN installed if you want to cluster the SSL VPN servers.

If the export law permits, you can order the high bandwidth SSL VPN RPM to get the high bandwidth capabilities at no extra cost. After the export controls have been satisfied, the order will be fulfilled. You can install the high bandwidth SSL VPN RPM on both the traditional Novell SSL VPN server and on the ESP-enabled Novell SSL VPN server.

Your regular Novell sales channel can determine if the export law allows you to order the high bandwidth version at no extra cost.

For more information on how to order and install the high bandwidth SSL VPN, and to upgrade the high bandwidth version to the latest build, see Section 4.5, Installing the RPM Containing Key For High Bandwidth SSL VPN.
