To access my remote routers (~100) I prepared one SSTP server in a VPS but now that I’m about to add several hundreds of routers, this VPS is not good enough so I need some external solution. Do you know some company who can provide me with a strong SSTP Server that will support ~500 clients?
Thanks!!
Yes, but I don’t have the infrastructure to host the CCR router 24x7 so I’m looking for a company that rents VPN Servers in any form (routers, firewall, server, etc.) - but must work with SSTP.
95% of “VPN-offering” companies if not 100% working with governments to fully spoil whole purpose of using VPN for both personal and business purposes and nearly 1/3 founded specially/initially for that. (same apply for 90% networking companies, excluding few Chinese or Iranian companies)
what big deal with hosting say CCR1009-PC 24/7 even in SOHO environment ? its not rocket science, i think.
go for CCR, its WORKS !!
I think you are right, I will try to get a CCR-1036 in a local data center. Do you have any reference about the maximum concurrent VPN clients this device can support? I know that by license is unlimited but I would like know a real reference because I will have to connect ~500 clients 24/7.
Thanks!!
However, the hardware rent to host it plus CHR license costs alone will be much higher than hosting a CCR1036 in the middle and long term.
Haven’t tested that but even a CCR1009 it shouldn’t have problem to cope with 500 connections; however your best bet would be asking mikrotik support directly for any figure references related to specific hardware.
SSTP itself quite specific thing.
aside hardware limitations, there was unusual issues and latency with it(as with most other VPN)notably increase.
but it good in traversing/bypassing firewalls and nat.
since Mikrotik considering implementing UDP version of OpenVPN - its may be nice option also(if/when it happens).
