QuickVPN for Mac OS X (WRVS4400N)

[davekoelmeyer]

So apparently QuickVPN is not available for Mac OS X, scuttling what is otherwise a great product for a mixed-platform small business.

Can I ask someone from Cisco to advise on whether a Mac OS version of QuickVPN is planned?

If not, then can someone from Cisco and/or this community possibly:

a) let me know of a solution for VPN access on Mac OS which is known to work with this router

b) let me know of a product from a competing vendor which *does* allow VPN connections from non-Windows platforms, with a feature set and price similar to the WRVS4400N?

Cheers,

Dave

I see a help document here which partially addresses this query:

https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-10266

Will be trying that on a Snow Leopard system and see.

Cheers,

Okay - thanks to the community member who wrote that document, I can connect via VPN using IPSecuritas fine.

However, this is 2011, not 2001. I don't use Mac OS myself as my primary platform (I'm an OpenIndiana guy), but last time I looked Mac OS was pretty big in small business, so it baffles me why you guys (Cisco) want to cut out a huge number of potential customers from using one of the key features of this otherwise nice piece of kit. Please, a Mac OS version of QuickVPN is just common sense.

Thanks,

Dave
