4.5.6. VPN IPsec
This submenu allows the establishment of Virtual Private Networks (VPN) between two WGS5000‟s.
A VPN is a private network that is configured within a public network (a carrier's network or the
Internet) in order to take advantage of management facilities of large networks. VPNs are widely
used by enterprises to provide site-to-site connections to branch offices and to allow mobile users
to connect to their company LANs. At the moment only a point-to-point VPN can be established,
i.e., only two WGS5000‟s can be connected at once.
