Before I start, I know I am going to get a lot of replies saying ‘use a proper router’ or ‘get something that does IPSEC in hardware’ but …
I have a requirement for a very low bandwidth IPSEC tunnel for simple SSH access to a device plugged into a CRS305 switch. I know the CRS is not designed for any significant routing / tunnelling, and that all packet processing for this will be done by the CPU, but will the CRS even support this and would there be any deal-breaking limitations?
The only use for the tunnel is to allow us to SSH into a directly connected device, enter 3 or 4 lines of configuration, and then remotely reboot the device, something even an incredibly low bandwidth IPSEC tunnel should be suitable for?
