Re: [Users] FreeSwan in large scale production use ?

The University of Freiburg in Germany operates a wireless LAN network
on its campus that is secured by IPsec. For the current winter term they have
issued 292 X.509 certificates (200 of them valid and 92 revoked). All
WLAN access points are connected to a Linux FreeS/WAN security gateway.
The mobile clients are either running FreeS/WAN on Linux or SSH Sentinel
on Windows. During the day usually about 40-50 concurrent tunnels are up.

The support page at

   http://mopoinfo.wlan.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/

gives a lot of information about the network topology as well as on-line
statistics on the number of open tunnels and the bandwidth used.

Regards

Andreas
