A virtual private network (VPN) is a private network established on a public network for encrypted
communication. A VPN gateway encrypts data packets and translates destination IP addresses of data
packets to implement remote access. The VPN service can be provided through a server, hardware client, or
software client.
10.1 IPSec VPN
IPSec VPN is an open network security protocol suite developed by IETF to ensure secure data transmission
over the Internet through source authentication, data encryption, data integrity check, and anti-replay at the
IP layer. This protocol suite lowers the risks of data leakage and interception, and ensures the data integrity
and privacy, thus protecting the security of communication.
