Router

In this illustration, you see an example of a computer-to-VPN router VPN. In her

hotel room, a traveling businesswoman connects to her ISP. Her notebook

computer has the Cisco QuickVPN Client software, which is configured with her

office’s IP address. She accesses the Cisco QuickVPN Client software and

connects to the VPN router at the central office. As VPNs utilize the Internet,

distance is not a factor. While using the VPN, she now has a secure connection to

the central office’s network, as if she were physically connected.
