Introduction : VPN

VPN
The console server administrator can set up VPN connections to establish an encrypted communication between the console server and a host on a remote network. The encryption creates a security tunnel for dedicated communications.
You can use the VPN features on the console server to create a secure connection between the console server every machine on the subnet at the remote location or between the console server and a single remote host.
To set up a security gateway, install IPSec on any machine performing networking over IP, including routers, firewall machines, application servers and end-user machines.
The ESP and AH authentication protocols are supported. RSA Public Keys and Shared Secret are supported.
