Hewlett-Packard Company Virtual Private Networking Concepts Guide
The VPN Client is a software package based in Windows 95 or
Windows NT that provides desktop-to-gateway security within a
LAN or across any WAN.
Because all VPN devices operate at the network layer, the VPN
Client is completely transparent to users and works with any
application. With the VPN Client, users can dial in to any Internet
service provider (ISP) and create a secure channel back to your
network, which eliminates the need for expensive dial-in
equipment and toll-charges.
The VPN suite supports the use of secure tokens. These tokens
are a tamper-resistant PCMCIA card designed to meet FIPS-140-
1 level 2 criteria. The token stores and performs all public key
operations while keeping private keys secure from attacks.
The VPN devices are designed to grow with your network. If you
only have a few sites, you can operate them with only a few VPN
devices. As your network grows, you can add additional VPN
devices, remote clients, and central management at any time.
These components are illustrated next in a typical network
configuration.
