Using the VPN Option

Setting up a VPN Tunnel

A VPN (virtual private network) tunnel is a connec- tion to a remote site over the public Internet. VPN tunnels are a cost effective solution for sending and receiving secure business data between two sites.

If you ordered an Intel® 8205 VPN router or purchased one of the VPN Options for Intel® Express Routers separately, you can create a VPN over the Internet.

A VPN provides the security of a private network without the costs associated with a wide area network (WAN). The costs for a VPN consist of only the subscription to an Internet service provider (ISP) and local calls to your ISP.

Note: You must have a working connection to the Internet (through the DSL or cable modem connected to the LAN 2 port) before you can add a VPN tunnel.
