allow the data exchange, will cause the private data to be exposed to all the users on
the Internet.
The VPN (Virtual Private Network) technology is developed and used to establish
the private network through the public network, which can provides a secure
communication to a remote computer or remote network, and guarantee a secured
data exchange. IPSec is one of the major implementations of VPNs.
Establish an IPSec VPN tunnel to connect two LANs via Internet so
that the hosts in different remote LANs are able to communicate
with each as if they are in the same LAN.
For example, I am the network administrator of a regional office,
I need to let my office staff can visit the headquarter’s servers
and resources, and vice versa. I know that the router in my office
and the device in headquarter both support IPSec VPN feature,
so I decide to set up a VPN connection with the headquarter
office.
The following diagram is a typical VPN topology. Here Site A
refers to regional office’s network (local network). And Site B
refers to the headquarter’s network (remote network) which I
want to connect.
LAN: 192.168.1.1
WAN: 219.134.112.246
PC 1
Subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
WAN: 219.134.112.247
PC 2
LAN: 192.168.2.1
Subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
Site A
Site B
1. Make sure of the topology you want to build and record site
A (local network) and site B (remote network)’s LAN IP and
