Bridging across a VPN connection

Bridging across a VPN connection is useful for:
• Sending IPX/SPX over a VPN, something that is not supported by other VPN vendors.
• Serving DHCP addresses to remote sites to ensure that they are under better control (which can also be

• Allowing users to make use of protocols that do not work well in a WAN environment (such as netbios).
