13 IPsec VPN
The Pepwave MAX
’s IPsec VPN functionality securely connects one or more branch offices to your
company's main headquarters or to other branches.The data, voice, or video communications between
these locations are thus kept safe and confidential across the public Internet.
The IPsec VPN of the Pepwave MAX is especially designed for a multi-WAN environment. For instance, a
user sets up multiple IPsec profiles for his multi- WAN1 ~ WAN3 environment, if WAN1 is connected and
its health check turns up good, the IPsec traffic will go through this link. However, should unforeseen
problems (e.g. physically unplugged or ISP problems) arise and cause WAN1 to go down, our IPsec
implementation will make use of WAN2 and WAN3 accordingly, as failover purposes.
