RATED FOR UP TO 8000 VPN TUNNELS
Mako VPN concentrators are optimized for high-throughput, low-overhead performance, resulting in maximum speed and volume of data transmission. Rated to terminate up to 8000 Mako VPN Cloud tunnels, the Mako 8600 VPN concentrator is designed to handle rapid growth, traffic spikes and flexible routing with ease.

Two or more Mako VPN concentrators can be configured to use circuit, geographic or hardware redundancy for high availability, supporting Active/Active, Active/Passive and Load Balancing modes. Certain models have a backup power supply, as well.

Mako VPN Cloud is a patented SD-WAN technology that replaces the need for IPsec tunnels and legacy MPLS networks. Connect retail locations or other remote sites to head offices, data centers or third-party vendors easily, with a few clicks in the Mako CMS and without requiring static IP addresses. Your data is encrypted in both transmission directions for maximum security.

Third-party network devices can be incorporated into a Mako SD-WAN using IPsec. These devices will not benefit from the Mako CMS management features afforded to Mako devices, but they can join the same distributed enterprise network.

Mako VPN concentrators support Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) for easy compatibility with complex data center configurations.

Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports accept a variety of different network interface modules, including Ethernet and fiber-optic interfaces. This brings both added density and maximum flexibility to a Mako VPN concentrator’s WAN/LAN port options. The SFP+ ports on the Mako 8600-S support speeds up to 10 Gbps.

Mako VPN concentrators feature Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) technology, including packet inspection and Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDS/IPS). All traffic entering and leaving a network is scrutinized to ensure network connections are authorized and intrusion attempts are identified and blocked. Port scanning protection, worm detection, MAC address control and complex firewall rules can be templated and deployed to thousands of Mako devices at once via the Mako CMS, massively reducing the time to implement changes and ensuring an organization’s security posture is readily up to date.

Unlike other networking solutions, the entire Mako System, including the Mako CMS and all Mako devices, is end‐to‐end PCI DSS certified, providing peace of mind that your sensitive data is handled properly. Mako’s PCI-certified enterprise templates facilitate bulk security configuration of Mako devices and make it easy to demonstrate compliance when necessary.

Mako VPN concentrators are fully cloud-managed via the Mako CMS, making remote management, monitoring and support simple and straightforward. Using a patented communications protocol, each Mako device connects securely to the Mako CMS over the public Internet. User security features include multi-factor authentication and role-based permissions. Authorized users have 24/7 remote access from anywhere in the world to a complete suite of cloud-based tools for advanced configuration, automated real-time alerts, enterprise reporting and troubleshooting diagnostics, reducing or eliminating the need for on-site maintenance.
