It is the ultimate solution for companies that want the highest levels of WAN redundancy, reliability, and speed for data traffic directed from the network to the Internet as well as data traffic directed to servers hosted internally. MPVPN aggregates any combination of DS3, T1, E3, E1, DSL, OCN, ISDN, wireless, 3G, 4G, and cable lines. It enables dynamic data transmission over multiple paths for the combined speed of the connections and redundancy, providing you the confidence that your data connectivity is insured regardless of individual router failure. MPVPN works with all existing hardware and applications. No BGP programming is required. FatPipe MPVPN is available with a variety of throughput options. FatPipe can accommodate small companies and branch offices with its lower throughput versions starting at 5 Mbps, as well as enterprise level customers who require speeds up to 2 Gbps. You can access the User Manual, FatPipe MPVPN's configuration, and the FatPipe website from the configuration interface of MPVPN. The interface also has links to the feature set, sales and support contact information, and Frequently Asked Questions. Chapter 1: Initial Setup This chapter provides you with the information required to setup the cable connections and the initial configuration for FatPipe MPVPN. In this chapter you will learn how to: Install the MPVPN unit Connect MPVPN to your network Chapter 2: Interfaces This chapter explains how to setup the necessary networking parameters for FatPipe MPVPN to work with your existing networking environment. In this chapter you will learn how to: Setup the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway of each networking interface Setup IPv6 LAN and WAN settings Overview 6 Configure Ethernet MAC address Set Spillover Priority Activate VLAN Enable or Disable DHCP Relay for LAN connection Configure Weighted Load Balancing (please also refer to Chapter 4: Load Balancing) Enable or disable access to services running on the MPVPN unit Check the status of each WAN connection Overview 7 Chapter 3: System This chapter explains how to set general user settings, save a configuration file backup, and establish unit failover. Along with user accounts, date and time, and SNMP settings, you can also choose to configure the high availability option using an additional standby MPVPN unit at your site. This is called Unit Failover. In this chapter you will learn how to: Set user privileges and passwords Setup Unit Failover between two MPVPN units Set system date and time Backup and restore the system configuration Reset the system configuration to default settings Enable SNMP access to MPVPN for monitoring the performance of your network Configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP addresses to devices on your local area network (LAN) Export traffic statistics using NetFlow protocol Send event messages to a Syslog Server Configure a list containing Hostnames of LAN devices and their respective IP address. Chapter 4: Load Balancing MPVPN dynamically load balances inbound and outbound IP traffic for the highest levels of reliability and redundancy of WAN/Internet connections. Use the management interface to setup the appropriate Load Balancing option, Route Test configuration and SmartDNS. In this chapter you will learn how to: Choose the appropriate Load Balancing option Set your Route Test configuration Configure SmartDNS for inbound load balancing and redundancy Configure Site Load Balancing Configure Server Load Balancing Configure TCP Congestion Algorithm (please refer to Chapter 12: WAN Optimization) Chapter 5: Routing You can setup and schedule Inbound and Outbound Policies, Static Routes, Quality of Service (QoS) Rules, and enable OSPF. In this chapter you will learn how to: Configure Inbound Policy to allow connections to internal servers Configure Outbound Policy to specify rules for outbound connections Configure Global Outbound Policy (please refer to Chapter 14: Central Manager) Overview 8 Configure Static Routes for additional routed subnets Schedule Policy Routing Rules for different times and days of the week using the Scheduler Configure Quality of Service (QoS) rules for use with Outbound Policy Configure Global QoS (Please refer Chapter 14: Central Manager) Enable and configure OSPF Configure VPN tunnels Configure MPSEC for VPN redundancy Configure Compression and Caching of different protocols for WAN Optimization (please refer to Chapter 12: WAN Optimization) Configure IPv6in4 tunnel Configure IPv6 static routes Enable Advanced Routing options Chapter 6: Tools Use FatPipe MPVPN’s remote management interface
