Dear all
 
           My company intend to use SAP remote support through the RAS VPN 
according to the picture below. The company which povide te share support 
service already use diffrent clients for accessing different customers :
Cisco client
 Netscrren client
 Windows VPN client 
 Nortel client
 
at the some internal machine. They passed us the following information 
about  RA VPN of them:

Access to customers using Internet based VPNs are done through an isolated 
link to Internet and each workstation that needs the access is mapped to 
an individual valid network address. 

All workstations and VPN client used is configured to avoid multiple 
tunnels and the connection to service provider corporate network while a 
VPN tunnel remains active.

To improve security, no routes are added to this isolated internet link, 
except those that match our customers VPN gateway addresses.

Scalability is obtained through a 34 Mbps internet link without usage 
limitation




 

        I would like to question if using these clients and the 
configuration above, are there security  risks in contract this share 
service and which possible tests we should make for assuring that we won´t 
have problems in the future ?

Thank you for any hints.
