Overview
In addition to a full firewall functionality, the IP40 Tele 8 and Satellite X enable secure
telecommuter access from home to the office network through the virtual private network (VPN)
functionality.
A VPN consists of at least one VPN server or gateway, and several VPN clients. A VPN server
makes the corporate network remotely available to authorized users, such as employees working
from home, who connect to the VPN server by using VPN clients. A VPN gateway can be
connected to another VPN gateway in a permanent, bi-directional relationship. The two
connected networks function as a single network.
A connection between two VPN sites is called a VPN tunnel. VPN tunnels encrypt and
authenticate all traffic through them. Through these tunnels, you can safely use your company's
network resources when you work at home. For example, you can securely read email, use your
company intranet, or access your company database from home.
The IP40 Tele 8, Satellite X licenses provide VPN functionality.
The IP40 Tele 8 acts as a VPN client and can establish secure VPN tunnels to your office VPN
gateway.
The IP40 Satellite X can act as a VPN client, a VPN server, or a VPN gateway.
