Spanish bank Caixa Catalunya has deployed an IP virtual private network (VPN) from Nortel Networks across its 950 national branches.
Nortel says the network is based on its Shasta 5000 Broadband Service Node (BSN) and Contivity Secure IP Services Gateways and provides the bank with a complete, all-in-one VPN and IPsec encrypted tunnelling solution.
Luis Marcos, Caixa Catalunya, comments: "The combination of Nortel Networks Shasta 5000 BSN and Contivity Secure IP Services Gateways has allowed us to meet our connectivity goals with a very high degree of security."
The system, which includes products from Nortels Unified Security Architecture, was installed in conjunction with the vendor's channel partner ITC.
