For site-to-site VPN connections via SSL, which are commonly used to connect a company’s headquarters with its subsidiaries, customers can now add a second IP for the destination server. If the first server’s IP address is unavailable, the new version of gateProtect’s firewall will automatically try to create the VPN tunnel using the second IP address. As a result, branch offices connected to their headquarters via a gateProtect VPN tunnel benefit from increased resilience against failures for their VPN connection.

SSL VPN is the latest protocol to minimize re-connection time and network overhead without compromising on security.
