Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a dedicated network set up based on a public network (usually the internet). it is
called a virtual private network since it consists of only logical connections. The VPN technology allows employees
at a branch of an enterprise and employees at the headquarter to exchange resources without exposing these
resources to other internet users.
Supported by the tunnel technology, VPN creates a virtual dedicated line between two endpoints and uses
point-to-point authentication and encryption to guarantee the security of data transmission. This router is
compliant with layer 2 tunnel PPTP and L2TP, and layer 3 IPSec.
