Cisco 881 - Maximum number of VPN tunnels allowed ?

[Stephen Carter]

Hi,

I know this sounds a simple and easy question, but I can't find the answer anywhere - so here it is :-

I need to know the maximum number of vpn tunnels that a Cisco 881 can handle.

(In context, we have a group of users, who work from home and this office, so their laptops have the cisco vpn client, I need to know how many of these vpn connections the 881 can handle at once before it dies a death.)

Hote - I have read somewhere a line that state maximum number of users is 20 but think this was in reference to some VOIP service.

Thanks in advance.
