RSA SecurID Ready
Celestix RAS3000 is RSA SecurID ready. RSA is the world leader in two-factor authentication and secure computing. Their SecurID technology ensures user integrity by requesting something known (a user-specific PIN) with something held (a unique one time password based on time syncronization). When used in conjunction with RSA SecurID, the RAS3000 offers a significant and unique solution for SecurID users:
-
The RAS3000 generates an executable (called a connectoid) that can be used to configure the intrinsic Windows VPN client. With the RSA Secured RAS3000, the RSA Agent can actually be bundled with this executable. To an end user, there is no need to install two separate executables, thus eliminating a potentially confusing step. From an IT administrators perspective, this also lessens the complexity normally associated with RSA client deployment.
-
In addition, the connectoid will automatically configure the VPN client to require SecurID. In essence, there is no configuration required for an end user after installation of the executable.
-
There are no extra costs associated with bundling the RSA EAP Agent and the connectoid. Some vendors charge an additional fee to provide this functionality.
For information on how to integrate your RAS3000 with RSA SecurID, please contact Celestix support or consult the SecurID Implementation Guide at http://rsasecurity.agora.com/rsasecured/guides/imp_pdfs/Celestix_RAS3000_ACE5.pdf

Enterprise VPN solutions:
Product of the Year
"Our judges found ease of integration
to be the biggest attribute of this product.
No client deployment is necessary, and the
user interface is Web-based. All Windows
operating systems are supported, including
Windows XP and Pocket PC 2002, as well as
multiple remote access VPN protocols such
as PPTP, L2TP and IPsec."
- Editors of SearchNetworking.com

"For small- to medium-sized businesses, my advice is to run, not walk, to your nearest dealer and get one of these units. In the quest for a VPN solution that's easy to set up, quickly operational, easy to manage and has a built-in interface that can't be beat, the RAS 3000 is hands-down the best appliance based solution I've seen."
