What is a VPN?

Planning Your Virtual Private Network (VPN)

VPN Router to VPN Router

An example of a VPN Router-to-VPN Router VPN would be as follows. At home, a telecommuter

uses his VPN Router for his always-on Internet connection. His router is configured with his

office's VPN settings. When he connects to his office's router, the two routers create a VPN

tunnel, encrypting and decrypting data. As VPNs utilize the Internet, distance is not a factor.

Using the VPN, the telecommuter now has a secure connection to the central office's network,

as if he were physically connected. For more information, refer to “Appendix C: Configuring a

Gateway-to-Gateway IPsec Tunnel.”

Computer (using the Linksys VPN client software) to VPN Router

The following is an example of a computer-to-VPN Router VPN. In her hotel room, a traveling

businesswoman dials up her ISP. Her notebook computer has the Linksys VPN client software,

which is configured with her office's IP address. She accesses the Linksys VPN client software

and connects to the VPN Router at the central office. As VPNs utilize the Internet, distance is not

a factor. Using the VPN, the businesswoman now has a secure connection to the central office's

network, as if she were physically connected.
