The VPN Pass Through Tab

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a type of secured private network connection, built upon publicly-accessible infrastructure such as the Internet. They usually provide connectivity to various devices behind a gateway or firewall.

The GN-BR30N-RH supports Internet-industry standard technologies to provide open and interoperable VPN solutions, including Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) and Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP).

PPTP Pass Through setting

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) allows you to establish a connection to an enterprise network. To allow PPTP tunnels to pass through the Router, click Enable and key in the Router’s IP address.

IPSec Pass Through setting

IP Security (IPSec) provides authentication and encryption. Since it is mainly a Layer 3 technology, it can secure all data on the network. To allow IPSec tunnels to pass through the Router, click Enable and key in the Router’s IP address.

L2TP Pass Through setting

Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) is an extension of the Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol and is also used to establish virtual private networks. To allow L2TP tunnels to pass through the Router, click Enable, and key in the Router’s IP address.
