VPN - Virtual Private NetworkingΒΆ
A virtual private network secures public network connections and in doing so it extends the private network into the public network such as internet. With a VPN you can create large secure networks that can act as one private network.
Companies use this technology for connecting branch offices and remote users (road warriors).
AIMdefense Firewall supports VPN connections for branch offices as well as remote users.
Creating a single secured private network with multiple branch offices connecting to a single site can easily be setup from within the graphical user interface. For remote users, certificates can be created and revoked and a simple to use export utility makes the client configuration a breeze.
Integrated VPN options
Integrated solutions are those that are available within the GUI without installing any additional package or plugin. These include:
