Chapter 6. IPSec / PPTP / L2TP VPN

A VPN provides a secure communication channel ("tunnel") between two gateway
routers or a remote PC client. The following types of tunnels can be created:
Gateway-to-gateway VPN: to connect two or more routers to secure traffic between
remote sites.
Remote Client (client-to-gateway VPN tunnel): A remote client initiates a VPN
tunnel as the IP address of the remote PC client is not known in advance. The
gateway in this case acts as a responder.
Remote client behind a NAT router: The client has a dynamic IP address and is
behind a NAT Router. The remote PC client at the NAT router initiates a VPN
tunnel as the IP address of the remote NAT router is not known in advance. The
gateway WAN port acts as responder.
PPTP server for LAN / WAN PPTP client connections.
L2TP server for LAN / WAN L2TP client connections.
