VPN (Virtual Private Network)
VPN tunnel
Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a technology for secure transportation of confidential data in
public IP networks, for example the Internet. With VPN, a secure connection (tunnel) is set
up and operated between two secure IT systems or networks via a non-secure network.
One of the main features of the VPN tunnel is that it forwards all frames even from protocols
of higher layers (HTTP, FTP etc.).
The data traffic between two network components is transported practically unrestricted
through another network. This allows entire networks to be connected together via a
neighboring or intermediate network.
