    Hello community,

    It happens so that we, a small startup,  have to setup and manage on premise hardware and share a VPN access between a couple of servers. 
    Upstream provider suggests to use  FortiClient  to connect to their VPN and as far as I understand that's offers SSL VPN.

    We have a network cabinet and I thought about getting a device that we will configure once and then forget about it.  But after googling on how to connect to the Fortinet (e.g. emulate FortiClient) I reassessed the amount of time we will potentially have to invest int setting this operation up with a dedicated network device. 

    Therefore I want to ask an advice whether it's worth for a relatively small team without much of the previous network administration experience (that is basic IPtables) to  invest into setting up a Juniper device? 

    Thank you.

    It sounds like you'd be best seeking support from an appropriate local IT service company with relevant experience to assist you with the initial setup and perhaps provide ad hoc support as and when required. I suspect going it alone with Juniper, or equivalent, isn't the best option for you given the circumstances you describe.
