11. 7. Set up a VPN Connection

VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a private network established across the public network,
generally via the Internet. However, the private network is a logical network without
any physical network lines, so it is called Virtual Private Network.
With the wide application of the Internet, more and more data are needed to be shared
through the Internet. Connecting the local network to the Internet directly, though can
allow the data exchange, will cause the private data to be exposed to all the users on
the Internet.
The VPN (Virtual Private Network) technology is developed and used to establish
the private network through the public network, which can provides a secure
communication to a remote computer or remote network, and guarantee a secured
data exchange. IPSec is one of the major implementations of VPNs.
I want to:
Router 2 and then to the Server, so the gateway should be
192.168.1.2
• Interface: Determined by the port (LTE/LAN) that sends out the
data packets. In the example, the data is sent to the gateway
through the LTE port, so LTE should be selected.

Open a web browser on your PC. Enter the company server's IP
address to visit the company network.
Establish an IPSec VPN tunnel to connect two LANs via Internet so
that the hosts in different remote LANs are able to communicate
with each other as if they are in the same LAN.
For example, I am the network administrator of a regional office,
I need to let my office staff to visit the headquarters' servers and
resources, and vice versa. I know that the router in my office and
the device in headquarters both support IPSec VPN feature, so I
decide to set up a VPN connection with the headquarter office.
The following diagram is a typical VPN topology. Here Site A
refers to regional office's network (local network). And Site B
refers to the headquarters' network (remote network) which I
want to connect to.
