Overview of VPN Configuration

Two common scenarios for VPN tunnels are between a remote computer and a network
gateway, and between two or more network gateways. The modem router supports both
types. It supports up to five concurrent tunnels.

Client-to-Gateway VPN Tunnels

Client-to-gateway VPN tunnels provide secure access from a remote computer, such as a
telecommuter connecting to an office network.
