We ended up configuring VPN using the built in VPN support on the RT to a Cisco 
ASA and it does support IKEv2 which I haven't switched to quite yet.

Subject: RE: RT devices?

We have looked briefly at the RT devices for our on-call team but ruled them 
out straight away.  We use a Sonicwall remote access device and after speaking 
with them we have found out that Microsoft have not written any APIs for 
companies like Sonicwall to create remote access software, so no chance of SSL 
/ IPSEC VPN.

This is the response from Sonicwall:

"Unfortunately, the Microsoft Windows 8 RT Operating System doesn't include SSL 
or IPSec VPN APIs to allow vendors such as Dell SonicWALL to support adding VPN 
clients to their devices. This is a current limitation with this OS. I know 
Dell now have "full blown" Windows 8 tablets available now, which might be a 
better option."

Also the only way to install software is from the application site, so no 
bespoke software can be installed.


Cheers,
Mark

I am curious to know if anyone is thinking or has deployed RT devices to their 
end users.

Cheers
